How NBA Trivia works

  1. Eight questions, four options each. Exactly one option is right.
  2. Answer all eight, then press Check answers: the right option turns green with a tick, a wrong pick is outlined red with a cross, and each question shows the fact behind it.
  3. A new set comes out at midnight UTC, the same for everyone. Unlimited mode deals a new set every round.

The questions come from the infoboxes of English Wikipedia's player articles (CC BY-SA 4.0) for about 500 of the best-known NBA players, and from each franchise's old names. Before every release a script rebuilds the next 400 days of questions and re-checks each one against the raw data: one right option, three provably wrong. A question about a draft is asked only when the player's draft line is complete.

What kind of questions are in NBA Trivia?

Which player played for two given teams, which franchise once played under an old name, who went first overall in a draft, which franchise a player spent the most seasons with, his college, the season of his debut and his number of All-Star selections.

How do you know each answer is right?

Every question is built from the players’ English Wikipedia infoboxes (CC BY-SA 4.0), and a script re-checks the next 400 days of questions before each release: exactly one option must be right and the other three provably wrong. Questions about a draft only use players whose draft line is complete.

When does the quiz change?

At midnight UTC, the same eight questions for everyone. Unlimited mode deals a new set every round.

Are seasons written as years?

Debut questions use seasons, written like 2003–04. Old franchise names show the calendar years they cover.

Is this the official NBA game?

No. AllStar Grid is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the NBA, its teams, the players’ union or any other grid game. Team names and logos are used only to say which franchises a question asks about; the logos are trademarks of their teams.
