Re/code: Fantasy sports website DraftKings, which had discussed raising money from Disney, is going to get its funding somewhere else instead. But the two companies will have a relationship anyway: DraftKings will have exclusive rights to advertise fantasy sports on Disney’s ESPN properties starting in 2016. Earlier reports said Disney and ESPN were planning on investing $250 million in DraftKings in a deal that would value the company at $900 million.
