Live NBA market prices and moves.
What is NBA WIRE?
A live feed of tonight’s NBA prediction markets: a price chart for each game and a log of every meaningful move on Polymarket, with Kalshi’s price beside each game.
Which games does it cover?
Every game Polymarket lists for tonight, with the next three days of games under the log.
How often does it update?
Prices are read every minute. A row posts when a price moves 3¢ before tip, the favorite changes, tip is 90 minutes away, the game starts, a price crosses 25¢ or 75¢ in-game, it swings 15¢ inside 10 minutes, or a result comes in.
What does a price in cents mean?
The market’s chance. A team at 64¢ has about a 64% chance to win, and each share pays $1 if they do. The two sides add up to about 100¢.
When do NBA prices move before tip?
Mostly around the injury report: due by 5 PM local the day before, then a game-day update between 11 AM and 1 PM local (8 to 10 AM for tips at 5 PM or earlier). It updates every 15 minutes after that. A jump in those windows is usually a status change.
Why do NBA player markets move more than game prices?
Because they run on minutes. A starter ruled out frees 30-plus minutes and his shots, which go to specific teammates. The higher his usage (share of possessions he finishes), the bigger the shift. NBA ROLES shows who picks it up.
Does NBA WIRE track futures?
Yes. Futures prices that moved 2¢ or more today, or 3¢ or more this week, post to the log: champion, conferences, MVP and other awards, playoffs and the NBA Cup. Full boards are on NBA FUTURES.
Where do the prices come from?
Polymarket’s public market data; each game in the More NBA games list links to it. 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.
