This market resolves based on the outcome of the NBA game between the Detroit Pistons and Charlotte Hornets scheduled for April 10 at 7:00 PM ET. The winner is determined by the final score including any overtime periods, with the market resolving to either "Pistons" or "Hornets" accordingly.
Polymarket provides comprehensive, detailed market definitions across 143 individual markets with specific thresholds, timing rules, and edge case handling (postponement, cancellation, overtime inclusion). Kalshi provides only a single binary market with no threshold specification, timing details, or edge case rules, creating fundamental incompatibility in settlement logic and scope.
Hero Tip:
Do not assume Kalshi and Polymarket will settle identically. Polymarket's 143 markets include precise spread thresholds (e.g., Hornets -3.5 requires 4+ point win), over/under lines at multiple levels (222.5 through 247.5), and player prop thresholds. Kalshi's single market only resolves YES if either team wins, with no mention of spreads, totals, or player performance. If you trade on Polymarket spreads or props, your settlement will not map to Kalshi's moneyline-only outcome. Verify which platform you are trading on and do not cross-hedge between them assuming identical resolution.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Outlier: Polymarket offers 143 distinct markets covering moneyline, spreads at 16 different thresholds (-7.5 to -1.5 for Hornets, -1.5 to -15.5 for Pistons), over/under totals at 26 different lines (222.5 through 247.5), first-half spreads and totals, and 30+ player prop markets (points, rebounds, assists) with specific thresholds.

If the game is canceled entirely, with no make-up game, this market will resolve 50-50.' Overtime is explicitly included in all calculations. Resolution source is 'official NBA box score as published on NBA.com' for player props and final score for team markets.

If Detroit wins the Detroit at Charlotte professional basketball game originally scheduled for Apr 10, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.' This resolves YES for either team winning (moneyline only), with no mention of postponement, cancellation, overtime, or any edge case handling.
