Just a couple weeks separate us from the end of the NBA regular season. With that, Kalshi has a ton of prediction markets available to get in on with tons at stake. There are win total projections, awards futures, championship futures, and so much more. We dug through all of the different NBA Kalshi futures markets for you to find three spots you want to buy in on now. Come check out what we have cooked up for you on this Tuesday.
NBA End of Season Markets on Kalshi – March 31st
MVP Winner?
Do I necessarily think that Victor Wembanyama is going home with the hardware? No, I do not. However, the beauty of playing on Kalshi is that you don’t have to be right to win. The fact of the matter is that I think this is a great buy low spot for Wemby as he closes in on the end of the season. The Spurs sit just 2.5 games out of the #1 seed in the playoffs. The fact that they are this close after being so bad recently is already a testament to the difference he makes.
After his impassioned statement about believing he deserves the award, he peaked up to roughly 27%. Since then, the number has come back to Earth, but I think we buy the dip here. A game or two more like his eight-minute double double and we should see enough of a spike here that we can profit from this low price.
Rookie of the Year Winner?
While I think there’s a nice buy low price on the second option in the MVP race, I’m ready to call it a day in the Rookie of the Year contest. Cooper Flagg put together a respectable rookie season. He’s averaging over 20 points a game and is flashing signs of the superstar we knew he’d become. However, the problem for him is that Kon Knueppel has kept pace.
Knueppel is within a point and a half in the scoring category and reasonably close in both rebounds and assists too. The advantages that he has are two-fold though. Firstly, he’s played in nearly every one of the Hornets’ games. That puts him double figures ahead of the amount that Flagg played. Additionally, he’s playing for an above .500 team, who will be playing more basketball when the season is over.
Those two things and the price being where it is tells me it’s time to buy on Knueppel.
Brooklyn Wins This Season?
Brooklyn looked like a lost cause at the beginning of the season and they look even more like one now. Still, Kalshi has them listed at 72% chance to pick up 20 wins. Sitting on 18 currently, that would mean they would need to close the season 2-5 to cash the ‘yes’. That’s a .285 win percentage and they are currently sitting at .277. That means this should be close, so let’s take a look at the schedule.
Games with Charlotte, Atlanta, and Toronto should all be throw aways from Brooklyn. That leaves them looking for two wins against Indiana, Washington, and Milwaukee twice. They’ve split with all of those teams so far this year. However, Michael Porter Jr. is now injured and it wouldn’t surprise me if he packed it up for the year. I’ll take the low price on the ‘no’ side here and ride it to the end.
