In the upcoming NBA game, scheduled for April 19 at 6:30PM ET:
If the Magic win, the market will resolve to "Magic".
If the Pistons win, the market will resolve to "Pistons".
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.
Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)
All Polymarket markets use consistent resolution logic tied to official NBA box scores and halftime/final scores, with identical postponement and cancellation clauses (remain open until completion, or resolve 50-50 if canceled with no makeup). Kalshi data is unavailable, but no conflicting rules are present in the available Polymarket definitions.
Primary resolution logic:
Official NBA box score as published on NBA.com
Core resolution logic:
Full-game markets (Moneyline, Spread, Over/Under, Player Props) resolve based on final score including all overtime periods.
First-half markets (1H Moneyline, 1H Spread, 1H Over/Under) resolve based on halftime score only.
Player prop markets (Points, Assists, Rebounds Over/Under) resolve YES if the player exceeds the stated threshold, NO if at or below the threshold.
If a player is listed as inactive or does not take the court, all their prop markets resolve NO.
If the game is postponed, all markets remain open until the game is completed.
If the game is canceled entirely with no makeup game, all markets resolve 50-50.
Tied halftime scores in 1H Moneyline resolve 50-50; tied final scores in full-game Moneyline resolve to Magic (the non-spread-favored team).
Edge cases & Clarifications:
Halftime Tie in 1H Moneyline: If the score is tied at halftime, the 1H Moneyline market resolves 50-50 rather than to either team.
Game Postponement: If the game is postponed, all markets remain open and do not settle until the game is completed and official box scores are published.
Game Cancellation Without Makeup: If the game is canceled entirely with no makeup game scheduled, all markets in the group resolve 50-50.
Player Inactivity: If a player is listed as inactive or does not take the court at any point, all of that player's prop markets (Points, Assists, Rebounds Over/Under) resolve NO regardless of threshold.
Overtime Inclusion: All full-game markets include overtime periods in their resolution; first-half markets explicitly exclude overtime and use halftime score only.
Timing:
Resolution occurs upon official publication of the NBA box score on NBA.com following game completion. First-half markets settle at halftime; full-game markets settle after final score is official.
