Utah Jazz vs Charlotte Hornets Final Score & Over/Under Result — Nov 2, 2025

The market total sat at a number that invited modest scoring, but Charlotte's early aggression quickly signaled a different path. The Hornets' 39-point opening quarter—paired with Utah's 25—set a 64-combined tone that outpaced expectations from the jump. The first half landed at 119 combined points, continuing the brisk pace, though the second half would slow considerably to 110.

Utah refused to fade entirely, with Lauri Markkanen posting 29 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists while Keyonte George added 25 points and 7 assists to keep the Jazz competitive. Charlotte's Miles Bridges countered with 29 points, 4 rebounds, and 6 assists, while Kon Knueppel chipped in 24 points across the lineup. The third quarter became the game's flashpoint: a 71-combined-point explosion that featured Utah's 38 to Charlotte's 33, narrowing what had been a comfortable Hornets lead. Moussa Diabaté anchored Charlotte's interior with 17 points and 12 rebounds, stabilizing the home team when Utah surged.

The fourth quarter, however, belonged to Charlotte. The Hornets held Utah to just 17 points while scoring 22, sealing a 126–103 victory. The final combined total of 229 represented a measured offensive output overall—the opening quarter's early pace never fully sustained across four quarters, and the fourth-quarter deceleration to 39 combined points proved decisive in keeping the game below what the early minutes had threatened.
