The Studios Behind the Best Sports-Themed Slots

The Studios Behind the Best Sports-Themed Slots

We all know that having an attractive theme is essential for slots. Many thematic genres, from Ancient Egypt and Greece to modern game shows and movies, appeal to players, catching their eye before playing the game.
Sports are also a common theme in online slots, and most casinos will carry dozens of slot games based on popular sports. But who makes the best-themed sports slots? We have hand-picked some of the best studios covering a variety of sports below: Basketball – Microgaming
While basketball fans will be glued to the action as the Pacers take on OKC in the Finals this June, possibly having a punt with NBA Championship 2025 betting , there's a wide range of top basketball slots to entertain between games. Arguably, Microgaming is top of the pile here, as its satellite studios (Games Global, etc.) are behind the Basketball Star series, one of the most popular sports slots series of all time. A shoutout also goes to Clawbuster, the game's studio behind the unique Zombie Basketball Claw slot. Soccer – Playtech
Due to soccer's (football to anyone outside the US) status as the most popular sport globally, soccer-themed slots are the most ubiquitous example of sports games at online casinos. Playtech rules the roost here, with numerous releases, including Football Rules and Football Carnival. The game provider also has numerous soccer-themed table games and live casino games. NetEnt also slows substantially with soccer games, including the Football Champions Cup. American Football – Aristocrat
Aristocrats focus a lot on their land-based slot machines, which have a significant presence in Las Vegas. It gets the nod here as the top provider of football slots due to its partnership with the NFL for the official NFL slot machine (land-based only for now). There are plans for six of them in total. American football slots aren't just as commonly found as soccer slots, but you will find some interesting football-themed table games, including Football Blackjack Football Studio Live and DraftKings casino. Golf – Leap Gaming
Leap Gaming might feel like a niche provider for some players, but it is a consistent deliverer of quality casino games, including sports-themed slots like Soccer Strike. It is also the studio behind Virtual Golf, one of the most realistic sports-betting sim games you'll find online. It's not technically a slot, yet it warrants inclusion on this list as it was one of the most influential 'virtuals' released in the online casino space in recent years. Fishing – Pragmatic Play
There can only be one winner here – Pragmatic Play. This is the studio behind the iconic Big Bass slots series, arguably the most popular slot series in history. Years after the first release, Big Bass Bonanza, Pragmatic continues to churn out new Big Bass games, and players can't seem to get enough—the undisputed king of fishing slot games. Miscellaneous – Blueprint
We wanted to finish by tipping our hats to Blueprint Gaming, one of the best all-rounder studios for sports-themed games. It specializes in branded games, partnering with sports clubs like Celtic FC and building games based on icons, like soccer legend Diego Maradona . It also makes what is perhaps the closest thing to challenging Pragmatic Palay's dominance in fishing slots – the Fishing Frenzy series.

Microsoft Rushes To Plug SharePoint Flaws After Wave Of Cyber Intrusions

Reports suggest that Chinese?linked hackers exploited two unpatched flaws in on?premises SharePoint to breach around 100 organizations in a single weekend. Microsoft (MFT) rushed out fixes and urged everyone to update right away. On July 19, the Microsoft Security Response Center flagged a spoofing bug (CVE?2025?49706) and a remote code execution hole (CVE?2025?49704) in on?premises SharePoint. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Sign with MSFT. Advanced groups known as Linen Typhoon and Violet Typhoon have been chaining these vulnerabilities to slip into servers, and a less familiar actor called Storm?2603 is now using them too. Their favorite targets include government agencies, think tanks and universities across the U.S., Europe and East Asia. If your IT team hasn't applied the new SharePoint patches, any exposed server is at risk of having data from defense plans to donor lists stolen overnight. Microsoft pointed out that SharePoint Online in Microsoft 365 isn't affected, making the cloud version a safer bet when it comes to rapid security updates. Rolling out fixes is one thing; getting them installed in complex, custom environments is another. Until everyone catches up, expect more breach headlines. This incident is a stark reminder of why many organizations are accelerating moves from traditional on?premises software to cloud?hosted alternatives.

Jannik Sinner rehires the fitness coach he fired for playing a role in his doping case

ROME (AP) — Wimbledon champion Jannik Sinner has rehired Umberto Ferrara as his fitness coach nearly a year after firing him for his role in the top-ranked player's doping case. The move comes after Sinner recently removed fitness coach Marco Panichi and physiotherapist Ulises Badio from his team. "Umberto has played an important role in Jannik's development to date, and his return reflects a renewed focus on continuity and performance at the highest level,' a statement from Sinner's team said Wednesday. Last year, Sinner tested positive twice for a trace amount of an anabolic steroid in March; the case wasn't made public until August, shortly before the U.S. Open, which he ended up winning for the second of his four Grand Slam titles. He initially was completely cleared, based on the defense that he accidentally was exposed to the banned substance, Clostebol, via a massage from his then-physiotherapist, Giacomo Naldi. Sinner said his fitness trainer at the time, Ferrara, purchased a product in Italy and gave it to Naldi for a cut on Naldi's finger. Naldi then treated Sinner while not wearing gloves. Sinner then fired Naldi and Ferrara, and Ferrara was hired briefly by Matteo Berrettini, another Italian player. The World Anti-Doping Agency appealed the exoneration, and Sinner agreed to serve a three-month ban that ended right before the Italian Open in May of this year. Sinner, who won Wimbledon this month, will return to action at the Cincinnati Open next month as he prepares to defend his U.S. Open title. ___ AP tennis: Andrew Dampf, The Associated Press

Ovi Ejaria on trial with La Liga club after not playing since 2022

Ovi Ejaria on trial with La Liga club after not playing since 2022 Without a club since January 2024 and having not played a match since 2022, Nigerian-born Ovi Ejaria is looking to revive his career. The former Liverpool prospect is currently on trial at Real Oviedo, backed by Veljko Paunovic, his former coach at Reading. Despite his long spell of inactivity, the Nigerian attacking midfielder is showing better fitness than expected and is impressing in training. His technical quality and dribbling skills remain undiminished. Ovi Ejaria (26) truly made his mark in the Championship with Reading before an injury stalled his progress. Now a free agent and potentially a low-cost signing, he could be an intriguing addition for Oviedo, who are seeking more attacking creativity on their return to La Liga. One to watch closely.
