Game Recap
Boston's road win marked a sharp departure from its earlier meeting with Cleveland this season, when the Celtics dominated in a blowout that totaled just 230 points. This time, the margin stayed razor-thin—a two-point final—but the scoring stayed suppressed: 232 combined, landing under the 234.5 market total by 2.5 points. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.
The game's scoring arc told the story of a second-half shootout that never quite materialized. The first half combined for 109 points across 55 in the opening quarter and 55 again in the second, a steady rhythm that suggested a lower-scoring affair. The third quarter ticked up slightly to 60 combined, but the fourth exploded to 63—the game's highest-scoring frame—as both teams scrambled in crunch time. Cleveland's 36 fourth-quarter points nearly matched Boston's entire second half, yet it fell short. Payton Pritchard led the charge with 42 points for Boston, while Jaylen Brown added 19 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists. On the other side, Evan Mobley scored 27 with 14 boards and Darius Garland chipped in 21 points and 8 assists, but it was not quite enough to overtake Boston's resilience down the stretch.
