An amended class-action suit filed Saturday targets not only embattled daily fantasy sports operators DraftKings and FanDuel, but also the companies' high-profile investors from the sports world, including the NBA, NHL and Major League Baseball, a holding company owned by New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, a hospitality firm co-owned by Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and the New York Yankees, and MSG Sports and Entertainment, owned by the New York Knicks owner James Dolan.
In the nationwide class-action suit filed in the Southern District of Florida, plaintiffs and daily fantasy players Antonio Gomez and John Gerecs amended their existing complaint to charge 40 individuals with claims of negligence, breach of contract unjust enrichment and Civil RiCO.
