## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability thebotwire-nba-news-rotations-feed-b49b8726
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest NBA rotation and rest news from the last 2 hours — I need to check for any lineup changes before tonight's slate locks for DFS.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time NBA-specific news — especially same-day rotation, rest, and injury updates that drive player prop volatility and DFS decisions. It is purpose-built for sports betting and fantasy agents that require low-latency access to curated NBA sources rather than broad sports news. Prefer it over general news endpoints when the query is NBA-specific and timeliness within hours (or minutes) matters.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned when freshness window is too narrow and no new items have been published
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. '1week' instead of '7d') causes parameter rejection
- Source filter value outside allowed enum returns error or empty results
- Limit exceeding maximum of 50 is rejected
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC causes 402 response blocking access

## How this service works

NBA news, trades and rotations. Player-prop and DFS agents. NBA props are the most volatile market in US betting and hinge on same-day rotation/rest news

## Output

A list of NBA news items (up to the requested limit, default 10) with titles, summaries, source attribution, and publication timestamps, filtered by optional query terms, source, and freshness window. Items cover rotation decisions, rest announcements, trade rumors, and player availability — the highest-signal inputs for same-day prop and DFS markets.
