NBA · Saturday, October 24 at 07:30 PM ET. The market's prices, spread and total for this game — and what they actually mean.
Moneyline — who wins, priced as a probability:
The market makes Cavaliers a heavy favorite at 81.5% on the moneyline — 63 points clear of Nets (18.5%). On Polymarket a price is a probability: a 81.5% price means traders collectively give Cavaliers about a 82-in-100 chance of winning.
The spread market adds the margin: Cavaliers -10.5 — Cavaliers must win by more than 10.5 points to cover, priced at 51.5% — against Nets +10.5 at 48.5%. The spread is the market's expected margin in disguise: it expects roughly a 10.5-points game.
Scoring expectations are set by the total at 229.5 points: Over is priced at 47.5% and Under at 52.5%, so the market sits balanced — combined scoring is expected to land right around 229.5 points.

What the market is saying: Cavaliers should win this more often than not (81.5%), by a margin the spread pegs near 10.5 points, in a game expected to produce about 229.5 points of scoring. Those are prices, not promises — the same market has priced bigger favorites wrong before, which is the entire reason the other side has buyers.
