Why I’m Writing This

As someone who recently got back into Sorare NBA, I started wondering just how difficult it is to win prizes in the Pro Competitions. Since this information isn’t readily available without actively participating, I decided to compile a detailed breakdown for anyone curious about the competition landscape.

If you’re interested in joining Sorare NBA and want to support both yourself and me, consider registering using my Sorare referral link. When you buy five cards in the Primary Market (via Auctions or Instant Buy), we’ll both receive €50/£50/$50 as a bonus!* Additionally, if you enjoy collecting physical cards, don’t forget to check out Panini and Topps basketball cards on eBay.

Pro Competition Participation Overview

The following tables summarize participation numbers and reward distributions from Game Week 24 of the 2024-2025 season, unless otherwise noted. These figures were recorded shortly before the registration period closed, so they should accurately represent the total number of participating lineups.

Last-Minute Participation Trends

One interesting observation is that around 25% of lineups in the Limited, Rare, and Super Rare leagues were submitted within the final hour before the deadline. These late entries may have less preparation and research behind them, potentially making them easier to outperform.
