  • Despite an apparent PR leak from Miami that suggested LeBron James was a done deal, the NBA star signed with the Philadelphia 76ers on July 24, 2026.
  • He signed a two-year, $8m deal, shocking to many considering that neither Kalshi nor Polymarket had Philadelphia as a real contender throughout the race.
  • Cleveland was the clear favorite for most of the market's history, reaching as high as 61% in early July, but Miami surpassed that in mid-July and held the edge until the final announcement came.

  • Resolves to whichever team LeBron officially signs with (or, if he stays put or retires, resolves to the Lakers).
  • One real gap between the platforms: Kalshi's per-team markets stop trading and resolve based on a signing 'before Oct 23, 2026,' while Polymarket's cutoff is Oct 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET.
  • If LeBron signs in that Oct 24-31 window, the two platforms could show different outcomes for a few days - worth knowing if you're comparing them closely in that stretch.
