NBA results Wednesday 11 November 2026: AI predictions review

Six NBA games went to the models on Wednesday 11 November 2026, and the consensus panel returned a middling 3 of 6. Two of the three wins were emphatic and easy to defend; the third required the Magic to grind out a seven-point road win. The other three were the kind of night that keeps prediction desks humble.

The biggest surprise came in Phoenix, where the Suns beat the LA Clippers 133-110. Every one of the 11 models picked the Clippers, with an average confidence of 61% and a most common score of 114-115. It was the panel's most confident call of the day and its most emphatic miss.

A six-game night produced a 3 of 6 record for the AI consensus panel.

Where the AI got it right

The Knicks were never troubled. New York won 117-85, a 32-point margin that dwarfed the panel's most common scoreline of 110-106. Still, 91% of the 11 models backed the home side, and the direction was correct even if the scale was not. New York Knicks vs Milwaukee Bucks prediction

Boston handled Philadelphia 123-101 on the road, again a wider margin than the consensus expected. The models had the Celtics at 91%, with a most common score of 116-117 and average confidence of 60%. The pick was right; the projected margin was modest.

The tightest correct call came in Sacramento, where the Magic won 107-100. All 11 models backed Orlando, at 63% average confidence, with a most common score of 114-115. The winner was right, though the game proved lower-scoring and closer than the panel anticipated. Sacramento Kings vs Orlando Magic prediction

Where it got it wrong

Phoenix was the headline failure. The Clippers drew 100% of the 11 votes at 61% average confidence, and the Suns won by 23 points, 133-110. No split panel, no near-miss: a unanimous call that never looked like landing.

Utah was a narrower miss. The models favoured the Jazz with 64% of the vote and a most common score of 114-110, but Miami took it 115-109. The consensus had the right idea of a tight, low-hundreds game and simply picked the wrong side of it.

Portland produced the day's second genuine upset. The panel went with Oklahoma City at 64%, most common score 112-113, average confidence 59%. The Trail Blazers won 123-103, a 20-point margin that runs well beyond anything the models projected.

Models of the day

Seven of the 11 models landed on 4 of 6: GPT-6.1 Sol, Claude Opus 5.5, Qwen 3.8 Max, Grok 4.7, Gemini 4 Argon, Kimi K3 and Meta Muse Spark 1.3. Any of them could claim the top tally, and all of them avoided the day's worst traps.

Three models finished on 3 of 6: Mistral Medium 3.5, MiMo V2.6 Pro and GLM 5.3. DeepSeek V4 Pro was the clear low scorer at 2 of 6, the only model to fall two games below the consensus record.
