This event group covers the NBA game between the Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns scheduled for February 24, 2025 at 9:00 PM ET. Markets span moneyline, spreads, totals, first-half outcomes, and individual player prop bets (points, rebounds, assists) across Polymarket and Kalshi platforms.
Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)
Both platforms use identical resolution logic: official NBA.com box scores, overtime inclusion, postponement handling (remain open), cancellation handling (50-50 split), and player inactivity rules (resolve No).
Primary resolution logic:
Official NBA box score published on NBA.com
Core resolution logic:
Moneyline and spread markets resolve based on final score including all overtime periods
Spread markets: Celtics win by stated margin or more = Celtics; otherwise or tie = Suns
First-half markets resolve exclusively on halftime score, not final score
Total markets (full game and first-half) resolve Over if combined score meets or exceeds stated threshold, Under if below
Player prop points markets: Yes if player scores strictly more than threshold, No if at-or-below threshold
Player prop rebounds/assists markets: Yes if player records strictly more than threshold, No if at-or-below threshold
Inactive or non-participating players: all props resolve No
Game postponement: markets remain open until game completion
Full cancellation with no makeup game: all markets resolve 50-50
Edge cases & Clarifications:
Tied spread at final: Spread markets resolve to Suns (non-Celtics side) if game ends in a tie
Halftime tie in first-half moneyline: First-half moneyline resolves 50-50 if score is tied at halftime
Player inactivity: If a player is listed inactive or does not take the court, all their prop markets resolve No
Game postponement: Markets remain open and unresolved until the game is completed; no automatic resolution
Exact threshold in player props: Player props use strict inequality: scoring exactly the threshold (e.g., 28.5 points) resolves to No
Timing:
Resolution occurs after final game conclusion (including overtime if applicable) and official NBA.com box score publication. First-half markets resolve at halftime. Postponed games remain unresolved until makeup completion.
