There will be plenty of sports action this weekend, with NBA and MLB action this Saturday. If you need a place to make bets on the weekend games, you can join bet365 Sportsbook and use the bet365 bonus code LABSNEWS to claim one of two entry promotions.
Your two options are a “bet/get” deal and a “first bet safety net”. The bonus code is the same for both promotions.
The “bet/get” deal from bet365 Sportsbook gives you an offer with a low entry point. By making a relatively low $5 wager, you can snag $150 in bonus bets. The only restriction with this deal is that your $5 bet must be placed on odds of -500 or longer. This means odds such as +125 and -300 work for this deal, whereas odds like -700 do not qualify for the promotion.
The “first bet safety net” acts as a form of “bet insurance” for you on your first bet. When making your initial cash bet, you can wager up to $1,000 as part of this promotion. If your bet doesn’t pan out and you lose, you’ll receive bonus bets equivalent to your stake. If your bet wins, you’ll regain your initial cash stake along with any profits earned from the bet. However, no bonus bets will be given out from the promotion.
Bonus bets you receive from bet365 Sportsbook expire seven days after appearing in your account. If you use them on a wager, you will only receive the profits if you win, and your bonus bets disappear afterward.
As of the time of writing, bet365 Sportsbook operates in the following 10 states: AZ, CO, IA, IN, KY, LA, NC, NJ, OH, or VA.

Betting on the NBA with bet365 Sportsbook
The biggest attraction on Saturday’s NBA schedule is the Celtics-Cavaliers game, which has a lot of star power involved. Superstars Jayson Tatum and Donovan Mitchell will face off against one another, with the Cavaliers hosting Game 3 in Cleveland.
Let’s assume that you claimed the “first bet safety net” option when using the bet365 bonus code LABSNEWS. With this option, betting the maximum potential amount is a good option. You either get $1,000 in bonus bets if you lose or get back $1,000 in cash and some extra cash if you win.
The Cavaliers are listed at +275 to win against the Celtics, and there are reasons to believe that they can pull off the upset. They already managed to win Game 2 in Boston, and Tatum’s struggles in the playoffs make the Celtics a much worse team than they were in the regular season. Meanwhile, Mitchell has been on a tear in the postseason, averaging 29.2 points per game. Mitchell may lead the Cavaliers to a win at home.
Here is what would happen if you placed a $1,000 bet on the Cavaliers to beat the Celtics.
- If the Cavaliers win, you get back your $1,000 stake and $2,750 in profits for a total of $3,750.
- If the Celtics win, you lose your $1,000 stake but get back $1,000 in bonus bets.
It is fair to say that Haliburton has had trouble scoring in the playoffs, as his scoring dipped from 20.1 points per game to 14.6. Still, the Knicks backcourt doesn’t have elite defenders, and New York’s rim protection matters less for a player who prefers to score from the perimeter. I expect Haliburton to bounce back from a poor outing in Game 1 in this matchup.
OG Anunoby has found his groove scoring-wise and has scored 15+ points in four of his last five games. The Pacers don’t have elite defenders at either forward position, and Anunoby will have an athleticism advantage over most of Indiana’s players. The conditions are certainly favorable for Anunoby to score at a high level. The forward notably averaged 15.1 points per game during the regular season.
