Rules (original text)
This Basketball market has two sides, NOP for New Orleans Pelicans and SAC for Sacramento Kings. It covers the Game between New Orleans Pelicans and Sacramento Kings in the 2026/27 NBA Regular Season, scheduled for 20261030-0000 UTC (the "Contest"). The Counted Play is the full game including overtime. The Contest Result is the official record of the Counted Play. Play outside the Counted Play, including any extra time, overtime, shoot-out, or tiebreak, is disregarded, and a winner decided by such play is not the winner of the Counted Play, even if any source treats it as part of the Contest. A participant is the sole winner if the Contest Result names it the sole winner of the Counted Play or, where it names none, if it has the better score or placing under the Contest rules when the Counted Play ends. The Contest Result is a draw if it records a draw, tie, or co-winners, or names no winner of the Counted Play with the scores level when it ends. The market resolves to NOP if New Orleans Pelicans is the sole winner, and resolves to SAC if Sacramento Kings is the sole winner. The market resolves to 0.5 if the Contest Result is a draw, records a no contest or no winner, names an unlisted winner, or is not established by 20261106-0000 UTC. A result that National Basketball Association (NBA) records for the Contest by administrative or rules-based decision, including but not limited to a decision following abandonment, walkover, forfeit, disqualification, or retirement, is the Contest Result if the Counted Play was not completed; a completed Counted Play is resolved on its record alone. A postponed, suspended, or rescheduled Contest, or one replayed because the Counted Play was not completed, between the same participants in the same NBA Regular Season remains the Contest, subject to the same rules and deadline. A result or status is established when National Basketball Association (NBA) publishes it or, failing that by 20261106-0000 UTC, when a clear consensus of independent reputable reporting available by that deadline supports it; otherwise it is not established. The Contest Result is fixed as National Basketball Association (NBA)'s record stands one hour after National Basketball Association (NBA) first publishes on any official channel that the Counted Play is complete, including by recording play beyond it, or that a result has been recorded by decision, or at 20261106-0000 UTC if earlier or if it rests on reporting; later appeals, corrections, reversals, or reassignments do not change it. This market is not sponsored by, endorsed by, or affiliated with National Basketball Association (NBA) or any competition, league, governing body, organizer, team, club, participant, or other person or entity referenced in this market.
