"https://api.scoretape.com/v1/nba/games?matched=true"An NBA prop on Polymarket trades against the box line that settles it, the questionable tag two hours before tip, and the live spread. NBA prediction-market data is only useful joined to the player, the box score, and the injury report behind the price.
A points-over market names a player in a slug; ESPN files that athlete under an id. ScoreTape links 22,900+ NBA prop markets to real ESPN athletes — matched against the game's own box-score roster first — so you can test a player's overs against the exact box line that settled them, with their injury history and game log one request away.
A last price hides the spread and the size at every level. ScoreTape records the live NBA order book on Polymarket and Kalshi — both sides, every level, tick by tick — so a backtest fills against the liquidity that actually existed at that moment. NBA depth is forward-captured: the tape only exists because someone was recording.
NBA lines move on load-management and game-time decisions before most feeds publish them. ScoreTape sweeps the league-wide report every 60 seconds and fires a signed webhook the moment a status flips, filterable by team and status. The change-log is archived forward, so you can replay the report exactly as it stood at any minute before tip-off.
Every plan gets every league and every endpoint. You're choosing how far back the tape rolls — and how hard you can pull on it.
