Analysis

This contract reflects the probability that Boston's first scheduled game of the 2026-27 NBA season will be against Detroit. At 15%, the market views this as a low-probability matchup. The NBA typically schedules opening-night games to feature marquee matchups or historically significant rivalries, and Boston-Detroit does not rank among the league's highest-profile first-game pairings. The contract will resolve once the official 2026-27 NBA schedule is released, likely in August 2026. Factors include whether the league prioritizes geographic proximity, competitive balance, or national television appeal when assigning opening assignments, and whether Boston and Detroit are designated as opening-night participants at all.

  • Boston-Detroit is not historically considered a marquee opening-night rivalry compared to contests like New York-Philadelphia, which trades at 40-45 cents on similar contracts
  • Opening-night assignments typically feature high-profile matchups or specific scheduling objectives; market assessment suggests this pairing does not meet those criteria
  • The official NBA schedule release in August 2026 will definitively resolve this contract; current pricing reflects pre-announcement uncertainty
  • Geographic distance and mid-season scheduling patterns suggest Boston may be paired with Atlantic Division or Eastern Conference rivals for opening night
  • The contract's low probability aligns with broader market data showing most single-game prediction contracts for non-marquee matchups price below 20 cents

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
