NCAAB API for Scores, Schedules, Odds & AI Agents

Available data

Everything below filters on the stable slug sport=ncaab (league ncaab). Discover seasons with GET /v1/seasons?sport=ncaab and teams with GET /v1/teams?sport=ncaab.

Schedules

List the slate with GET /v1/events?sport=ncaab. Narrow by status (scheduled / inprogress / final), date or from/to (max 90 days per request), and paginate with after_id / limit.

College tip-off volume is dense — use date windows and include_odds=true / include_scores=true to keep night-of boards to one round trip. Historical lookbacks work year-round (including March Madness when ingested).

Scores

NCAAB score payloads use basketball period labels — "1"–"4" and "OT" — plus a game clock when the feed has it (e.g. "8:42", "0:00").

• GET /v1/events?sport=ncaab&status=inprogress&include_scores=true — live board
• GET /v1/events/{id}/score — lightweight poll (~15s cache while live)
• GET /v1/events/{id}/stream — SSE event: score or signed webhooks

Cloneable pattern: live scoreboard use case (keep keys server-side).

Odds

NCAAB markets are two-way: moneyline (h2h), point spreads, and game totals. American odds integers; point is null on moneyline sides. Default single-book call is Pinnacle; bookmaker=all is the same 1 credit.

GET /v1/events/{id}/odds/history returns recorded price/point moves between ingest cycles — useful for steam on college sides and totals. Game markets only — player props are a separate endpoint below.

Full bookmaker list and normalization notes: Sports Odds API.

Player props

GET /v1/events/{id}/player-props (1 credit when lines exist; available:false is free) joins persisted player-prop mains to this-event player box counts and grades over / under / push once the game is final. Same basketball catalog as NBA.

Market keys and which ones grade: player props catalog. Endpoint fields: API reference.

Raw stats

GET /v1/events/{id}/stats returns Stage-1 NCAAB-native team context — same basketball catalog as NBA, scoped to ncaab. Check available. Fields: API reference — stats.

Sportsbooks

Odds keys: pinnacle, fanduel, draftkings, betmgm, caesars, bet365, circa, hardrock, betonline. Availability varies by event — check each bookmaker entry.

Examples

Tonight’s NCAAB games with odds inlined:

curl "https://lumify.ai/v1/events?sport=ncaab&status=scheduled&include_odds=true&limit=5" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

from lumify import Lumify

client = Lumify(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")
page = client.events.list(
    sport="ncaab",
    status="scheduled",
    include_odds=True,
    limit=5,
)
for event in page["events"]:
    print(event["id"], event["name"], event.get("odds"))

import { Lumify } from "@lumifyai/sdk";

const client = new Lumify({ apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY" });
const { events } = await client.events.list({
  sport: "ncaab",
  status: "scheduled",
  includeOdds: true,
  limit: 5,
});
events.forEach(e => console.log(e.id, e.name, e.odds));

Stage-1 stats for a tip-off (1 credit when available):

curl "https://lumify.ai/v1/events/5201/stats" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

stats = client.events.stats(5201)
if stats.get("available"):
    print(stats.get("league_slug"), stats.get("teams"))

const stats = await client.events.stats(5201);
if (stats.available) {
  console.log(stats.league_slug, stats.teams);
}
