Pronóstico: NBA Summer League: Orlando Magic vs. Charlotte Hornets

Platform comparison

Market context

The Charlotte Hornets defeated the Orlando Magic 86–74 in their NBA Summer League matchup on 9 July 2026, a result that has already resolved the Polymarket contract to “Charlotte Hornets” [3]. Despite the crowd-implied probability of 0% for an Orlando Magic win appearing stark, this reflects the game’s completed status rather than a pre-game mispricing; the market settled once the final score, including any overtime, was confirmed [1].

Historically, Summer League games with 0% implied probability for one side often signal either a completed event or a severe roster imbalance, as seen when the Hornets’ 2026 Summer League roster was finalized just a day before the contest [4]. Comparable cases show that when a team wins decisively in early Summer League action—such as the Hornets’ 12-point victory—the conditional tokens on Polygon automatically resolve to the winner, locking USDC payouts for holders [1].

Traders should monitor official NBA Summer League announcements for schedule dependencies, particularly if a game is postponed or canceled, which would trigger a 50–50 resolution [1]. Recent coverage confirms the Hornets’ roster was locked on 8 July, reducing uncertainty about player availability, while the Magic’s focus remained on showcasing summer session progress [4][5]. No further catalysts exist post-resolution, as the outcome is now on-chain and immutable.

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). That keeps the comparison honest — a single canonical probability across the row, with the venue-by-venue trade-offs spelt out in the columns next to it.

Resolution & payout

At resolution the UMA oracle takes over: a proposer posts the outcome with a bond, any token holder can dispute within two hours. Without dispute the result is accepted and the smart contract distributes USDC instantly.

On Kalshi (CFTC-regulated) resolution runs through their in-house clearing engine in USD. Betfair Exchange settles after match end in the account's local currency. Manifold pays no cash — only its in-platform "mana" currency.

How does resolution work?

Through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon: a proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and USDC payouts settle automatically once the result is final.

What's the difference between YES and NO shares?

A YES share pays $1.00 if the event happens, $0 otherwise. A NO share pays $1.00 if the event doesn't happen. The market price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the implied probability.

How reliable are the quoted odds?

The YES/NO percentages are the live mid-prices of the Polymarket order book. On deep markets they move every few seconds; on thinner ones you'll see short plateaus.
