Market rules, made readable

Official description

How this market is decided

Read the rules before reading the headline. Resolution wording decides the outcome, not the news.

See what is changing

Resolves Yes

If the matchup is not a listed matchup, the "Other" market will resolve to "Yes".

Resolves No

If at any point it becomes impossible for a listed matchup to occur in the 2027 NBA Finals (e.g. one of its teams is mathematically eliminated), the associated market will resolve to "No".

This market will resolve in favor of the 2027 NBA Finals matchup determined by the winners of the Eastern Conference Finals and Western Conference Finals of the 2027 NBA Playoffs. This market will resolve as soon as both conference champions are determined, regardless of any later event affecting the 2027 NBA Finals.

If the 2027 NBA Playoffs are cancelled, postponed after June 14, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, or the 2027 NBA Finals matchup has not been determined within that timeframe, each listed matchup's market will resolve to "No" and the "Other" market will resolve to "Yes". The resolution source for this market will be official information from the NBA; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
