Questions

What is on Game of Skill for the NBA?

Three free tools and five guides. NBA WIRE charts every game’s price and logs every move. NBA MARKET puts each game’s Polymarket and Kalshi prices side by side. NBA PROPS tracks the futures. The guides cover the champion, MVP and win-total markets, how NBA prediction markets work and trading them from the US.

Does Game of Skill have its own number for NBA games?

Not yet. We start with market data. Our own number comes once it has been tested against last season’s results, and we will say so on these pages when it happens.

Where do the prices come from?

Polymarket US and Kalshi, both open to US traders, with Polymarket’s international site as a backup when Polymarket US data cannot load. Prices are approximate, move constantly and are not advice.

Where can I trade NBA markets?

Kalshi and Polymarket US, both CFTC regulated and open to US traders in most states. Underdog, Novig, ProphetX, Betr and Rebet also list NBA markets. New-user offers are in the app strip above; state rules are in our US guide.

When does the NBA season start?

Preseason starts Saturday, October 3. Opening Night is Tuesday, October 20, and NBA Cup group play starts October 30.
