NBA API FAQs

NBA schedules, scores, quarter results, sportsbook odds and integration details.

What data does the NBA Odds API include?

The public API connects NBA schedules, teams, scheduled tip-off times, game details, available scores, results and sportsbook odds through one event ID.

How do I retrieve the NBA schedule?

Request GET /v1/events with the league=NBA filter. The response lists covered games and their canonical event IDs, which connect to game records, scores, results and odds.

Does the NBA API include player statistics?

The public contract exposes game metadata plus available score and result records. Player points, rebounds, assists and other stats appear as sportsbook prop markets, not as a separate player-statistics feed.

Can I stream live NBA odds?

Yes. Active covered games can move from a REST odds snapshot to SSE or WebSocket updates. Availability depends on the game, sportsbook, market and time.

Which sportsbooks provide NBA odds?

Sportsbook availability is attached to each game and changes over time. Use the event response or GET /v1/bookmakers to confirm the current canonical sportsbook keys before requesting odds.
