About Scoreonline

Scoreonline is a scores-first NBA site. It shows you the score, and then it shows you what the score means: how both teams have been playing, what happened the last time they met, where they sit in the conference.

What this site is for

There are plenty of places to watch a number change. Fewer places tell you whether a 112‑108 win was a surprise. The whole point of this site is the second part — season form, home and away splits, head-to-head history and net rating, on every page where a score appears.

That also means we are not racing anyone to be first with a score. Scores on this site refresh about once a minute. If you need the number the instant the ball goes through the net, a push-notification app will serve you better.

Betting odds

Odds appear on game pages as information, in the same way a weather forecast appears on a travel page. We do not accept wagers, we do not advertise sportsbooks, we carry no sportsbook links or sign-up offers, and we earn nothing from the bookmakers whose prices we show. Prices are a timestamped snapshot, not a live quote, and they are there because a spread tells you something useful about how a game was expected to go.

If that ever changes, it will be disclosed plainly on this page and in the footer of every page before it changes.

What is not here yet

• Per-player game statistics — points, rebounds and assists per game.
• Injury reports.
• Season averages and league leaders.
• Playoff and play-in coverage.

Each of those is a data-licensing question rather than a technical one. Data sources explains exactly where the current numbers come from and where the gaps are.
