What is NBA WIRE?
A live feed of the NBA prediction markets. It shows tonight's games with a price chart for each one and logs every meaningful move on Polymarket: opening moves, the favorite changing, swings during the game and final results.
Which games does it cover?
Every NBA game Polymarket lists for tonight's slate, with games for the next three days under the log. Prices only for now: there is no Game of Skill number on NBA games yet.
How often does it update?
Prices are read every minute. A row posts when a price moves 3¢ before tip, the favorite changes, a game is 90 minutes from tip, the game starts, a price crosses 25 or 75¢ during the game, it swings 15¢ or more inside 10 minutes, or a result comes in.
What does a price in cents mean?
It is the market’s chance. A contract at 64¢ pays $1 if that team wins, so the market has that team at about 64 percent. The two sides add up to about 100¢.

Mostly around the injury report. Teams file by 5 p.m. local the day before, then a game-day report between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. local (8 to 10 a.m. for tips at 5 p.m. or earlier; by 1 p.m. on the second night of a back-to-back). The official report updates every 15 minutes after that. A price that jumps inside those windows is usually a status change, so check the report before reading the move as opinion.
Why do NBA player markets move more than game prices?
Because they run on minutes. A starter ruled out frees up 30-plus minutes and his share of possessions, and those go to specific teammates. Usage, the share of possessions a player finishes, tells you who: a 30% usage player sitting moves more than a 15% one.
Does NBA WIRE track futures?
Yes. Futures moves lists every NBA futures price on Polymarket that moved 2¢ or more today or 3¢ or more this week: the champion, the conferences, MVP and the other awards, playoffs and the NBA Cup. The full boards are on NBA PROPS.
Does Game of Skill have its own number for NBA games?
Not yet. We will add our number once it has been tested against last season’s results, and we will say so on this page when it happens.
Why is part of a chart dotted?
Polymarket returned no price for that stretch, usually because the market did not trade. Solid segments are recorded prices; dotted segments only join them.
Where do the prices come from?
Polymarket’s public market data. Each game in the More NBA games list links to its Polymarket page. Kalshi prices are on NBA MARKET. Nothing here is a recommendation.
NBA game previews, the NBA hub, and the CS2 tools where our own numbers already run.
