04Questions

NBA Discord bot FAQ

Is the NBA Discord bot free?

Yes. All NBA features — live scores, standings, leaderboards, transactions, and First Basket alerts — are free. An optional Premium tier ($5/month per server) adds a capper picks feed with automatic grading, live odds and props, and market alerts — none of it is needed for the features on this page.

What NBA alerts can I set up?

NBA supports First Basket, which fires once per game on the opening made basket, and Anytime 3-Pointer, which fires on every made three — pair it with a player filter to follow one shooter.

How fast are NBA first basket alerts?

Alerts are typically delivered 30–90 seconds after the play. SportDataIQ polls the official league feeds every 30 seconds, detects the scoring event, and pushes a rich embed to your channel.

What NBA stats does the bot track?

Six categories: points, assists, and 3-pointers made on offense; rebounds, steals, and blocks on defense. Per-game leaderboards show the top players in each.

Does the bot show NBA standings?

Yes. Standings are grouped by conference, showing record, win percentage, and games back, refreshed continuously through the season.

Can I track NBA trades and signings?

Yes. NBA roster transactions are browsable inside the bot with filters by team and transaction type, sourced from the official league feed.

Where does the NBA data come from?

Official league data feeds, polled every 30 seconds and normalized through DataStreak, so stat lines match the official box scores.

How do I add the NBA bot to Discord?

Click Add to Discord, authorize the bot, then run /sportdataiq in any channel. Create First Basket rules at sportdataiq.com/dashboard — you need the Manage Server permission.
