Rush Street in talks over potential sale with DraftKings
Rush Street Interactive shares jumped last week after Bloomberg reported the company is exploring a potential sale. Sources indicated that the list of potential buyers that have been approached included DraftKings.
Neither Rush Street (RSI) or DraftKings (DKNG) has issued a specific comment on the report.
