The market resolves to Yes if the Minnesota Timberwolves are officially named the champion of the 2026-27 NBA season. It resolves to No if they lose in the playoffs or if the season ends without a declared champion by June 30, 2027, at 11:59 PM ET. Readers often mistake the linked preseason game for a relevant event, but only the final championship outcome matters.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
