Eligible new DraftKings customers can put $5 on the Phoenix Suns vs Oklahoma City Thunder game on April 19, 2025, and get $300 in bonus bets if the first wager wins. No promo code is needed. The offer follows users automatically at registration.
DraftKings will split the reward into 12 separate $25 bonus bets, and each one expires after seven days. The qualifying wager has to be placed on a market with odds of -500 or longer, making the promotion a simple entry point for first-time users who want to use the NBA Playoffs game as the featured matchup.
The timing gives the offer more pull than a standard sign-up bonus. The Suns-Thunder playoff game lands on April 19, 2025, with Oklahoma City listed as a 14.5-point home favorite and a 215.5-point total. The over has hit in four of the Thunder's last five games, while Phoenix is 1-5 against the spread against opponents with a winning record over its last six games.
That betting backdrop matters because it gives the welcome offer a live game to hang on. The promotion is aimed at first-time DraftKings customers, and the featured Sunday game turns the sign-up into an immediate action instead of a wait-and-see payout days later. The bonus arrives only after a winning initial wager, and the structure keeps the reward tied to a real result rather than a free handout.
There are also some injury notes attached to the matchup. Thomas Sorber is out for the season with a knee injury, while Mark Williams is day-to-day with a foot injury and Grayson Allen is day-to-day with a hamstring injury. Those absences and uncertainties add another layer to a game already shaped by the spread and total.
For eligible new customers, the pitch is straightforward: make a $5 qualifying bet on Suns-Thunder, win it, and DraftKings pays out $300 in 12 bonus bets that must be used within a week. The promotion is built to turn one playoff game into an immediate follow-on bet, and that is exactly what makes it easy to understand and easy to use.
