This market will resolve “Yes” if the listed team advances to the Conference Finals of the 2026 NBA Playoffs. If at any point it becomes impossible for the listed team to reach the Conference Finals of the 2026 NBA Playoffs (e.g. they are eliminated), the associated market will resolve to "No". If the 2026 NBA Playoffs are cancelled, postponed after June 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET or the results of the 2026 Playoffs Conference Semifinals have not been declared within that timeframe, this market will resolve to “No”. The resolution source for this market will be official information from the NBA (https://www.nba.com/); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.With the 2026 NBA playoff bracket finalized after the April 12 regular season finale, top seeds Oklahoma City Thunder (West No. 1) and Detroit Pistons (East No. 1) enter with home-court advantage through the conference finals, bolstering trader consensus on their paths via favorable first-round matchups against lower seeds or play-in winners. West dynamics shifted dramatically from Lakers star Luka Doncic's Grade 2 left hamstring strain six days prior, ruling him out indefinitely and clouding the No. 4 seed's upset potential versus higher seeds like Spurs (No. 2) or Nuggets (No. 3). Spurs' Victor Wembanyama sat the finale for rib rest, expected available. East features balanced series like Knicks-Hawks and Cavs-Raptors, plus play-in battles for 76ers-Magic-Hornets spots starting April 14, heightening upset risks amid Boston's minor injury concerns in recent injury reports. First round tips April 18.
