Market context

The New York Liberty defeated the Seattle Storm 84–76 in their WNBA matchup on 25 June 2026, with Breanna Stewart leading the Liberty to victory. This result confirms the market’s 0% YES probability for a Liberty win was already settled in the real world, as the game has concluded and the outcome is final [7][9].

Historically, when a team with a dominant win–loss record faces a struggling opponent late in the season, the probability of the stronger side winning approaches certainty. The Liberty’s 12–6 record and 8–1 Eastern Conference standing contrast sharply with the Storm’s 3–15 record and 0–10 Western Conference slump, making a Liberty win the overwhelming expectation [1]. In comparable cases from recent WNBA seasons, such mismatches have resolved with the top team winning by 8+ points, aligning with the -8.5 spread seen pre-game [3].

Traders should monitor official WNBA announcements for any post-game disputes or scoring corrections, though no such issues are currently reported. The settlement window ending 2026-06-26T02:00:00Z has already passed, confirming the market is resolved [1]. No further catalysts exist, as the game is complete and the result is determined by the final score including overtime [7]. Recent coverage from ESPN confirms the final score and Stewart’s 24-point performance, closing the loop on this event [1].

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). The odds column is filled only where we have clean data — that avoids the made-up numbers that get a network demoted when search engines cross-check against the source venue.

Resolution & payout

At resolution the UMA oracle takes over: a proposer posts the outcome with a bond, any token holder can dispute within two hours. Without dispute the result is accepted and the smart contract distributes USDC instantly.

On Kalshi (CFTC-regulated) resolution runs through their in-house clearing engine in USD. Betfair Exchange settles after match end in the account's local currency. Manifold pays no cash — only its in-platform "mana" currency.
