Description

In the upcoming NBA game, scheduled for April 18 at 6:00PM ET: If the Hawks win, the market will resolve to "Hawks". If the Knicks win, the market will resolve to "Knicks". If the game is postponed, this market will remain open until the game has been completed. If the game is canceled entirely, with no make-up game, this market will resolve 50-50. The result will be determined based on the final score including any overtime periods.

PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

All 80 markets across Polymarket and Kalshi share identical resolution logic: they reference the official NBA box score published on NBA.com as the authoritative source, apply consistent threshold rules (over/under comparisons, spread calculations, moneyline outcomes), and include uniform postponement and cancellation clauses (remain open until completion, or resolve 50-50 if canceled with no makeup).

Primary resolution logic:

Official NBA box score as published on NBA.com

Core resolution logic:

  • Player prop markets (Points, Rebounds, Assists O/U) resolve YES if the player exceeds the stated threshold, NO if at or below the threshold.
  • Spread markets resolve based on final margin: Knicks (-5.5) resolves YES if Knicks win by 6+, (-4.5) if by 5+; Hawks win or tie resolves to Hawks.
  • Moneyline markets resolve to the team with the higher final score including all overtime periods.
  • Total O/U markets resolve Over if combined score meets or exceeds the threshold (e.g., 217+ for 216.5 line), Under otherwise.
  • First-half markets resolve based on halftime score only, not final score.
  • If a player is inactive or does not take the court, player prop markets resolve NO.
  • If the game is postponed, markets remain open until completion; if canceled with no makeup, all markets resolve 50-50.
  • The Kalshi overtime market (Yes if game goes to OT) uses the same game outcome as the basis for resolution.

Edge cases & Clarifications:

  • Player Inactivity: If a player is listed as inactive or does not take the court at any point, all player prop markets for that player resolve NO regardless of hypothetical stat thresholds.
  • Postponement and Makeup: If the game is postponed, all markets remain open until the game is completed. If the game is canceled entirely with no makeup game scheduled, all markets resolve 50-50.
  • Overtime Inclusion: All statistics (points, rebounds, assists) and final score include all overtime periods; the game is not considered complete until all overtime is finished.
  • Halftime Tie: If the first half ends in a tie, the 1H Moneyline market resolves 50-50; 1H Spread markets resolve to Hawks (the non-favored team) if the Knicks fail to cover by the required margin.
  • Exact Threshold Boundary: For all O/U markets, the threshold is exclusive: a player scoring exactly 20.5 points resolves NO on a 20.5 O/U market; a combined total of exactly 216 on a 215.5 O/U resolves Over.

Timing:

Resolution occurs upon official publication of the final NBA box score on NBA.com, including confirmation of all overtime periods and final statistics. First-half markets resolve at halftime; full-game markets resolve at game conclusion.
