The HQ Trivia cash prizes have thrust the app into the international spotlight but HQ is stepping up its prize pool depending on the NBA finals. Following the massive $300,000 record session, hosted by the Rock, HQ is looking to give away prizes of increasing value as the NBA finals drag on. The games will begin at $100,000 at game one of the finals and will increase in 100,000 increments until the final 7th game. It is possible that the $700,000 prize may not be reached, but considering how the NBA finals have been going it may be quite possible.
The question in these games will largely focus on the teams, their cities and general basketball trivia. HQ Trivia usually hosts two games a day and the chance to win these big HQ Trivia cash prizes will occur at 6 p.m. PT / 9 p.m. ET each NBA Finals day.
