Curryillion — Daily NBA Trivia Where Rare Answers Score More

One in a Curryillion: seven basketball prompts a day, 24 seconds each. Any valid NBA answer scores — but the rarer your pick, the deeper the shot. The obvious name is a layup; the forgotten role player is a buzzer-beater.

How to play

  1. 1
    Press Tip Off

    Each day everyone gets the same seven basketball prompts — players, teams, awards, coaches, arenas. New puzzle at midnight Eastern.

  2. 2
    Beat the 24-second clock

    Read the prompt, type one valid answer, submit. Unless a prompt says otherwise, any NBA player in history is fair game.

  3. 3
    Rare answers shoot deeper

    The superstar everyone names is a 10-point layup. The deep cut almost nobody remembers climbs through free throws, threes and half-court shots.

  4. 4
    Share your score

    After seven prompts you see your total and can share a spoiler-free result. Local stats track games, average, best and streak.

Scoring tiers

Every valid answer lands in one of five shot tiers — the rarer the answer, the bigger the bucket.

Score higher

Skip the superstar

The name that pops up first is everyone's layup. Reach for role players, short careers and older eras — that's where the big shots hide.

Any answer beats a blank

A layup still scores. If the clock is dying and nothing rare comes, shoot the obvious one rather than taking zero.

Think franchise history

Prompts often allow all-time rosters. Fifth starters, backup bigs and one-season rentals are the usual half-court answers.

One puzzle a day

There is no unlimited mode — today's seven prompts are it. Finish, share, and come back at midnight Eastern for the next set.
