Portland Trail Blazers vs Cleveland Cavaliers Final Score & Over/Under Result — Dec 3, 2025

Portland's road victory in Cleveland landed comfortably under the pregame market total of 244.5, with the combined 232 points marking a 12.5-point undershoot that DAGGER had called for. The script was set early: a 69-point first quarter signaled offensive pace out of the gate, but the Cavaliers' defense tightened considerably afterward. Cleveland outpaced Portland 33–36 in Q1 but gave ground, while the second quarter's 57 combined points foreshadowed the grind ahead. By halftime, 126 combined points sat well behind the over's implied trajectory, and the second half proved even more deliberate—just 106 combined points across 24 minutes sealed the under's fate.

Deni Avdija led Portland's balanced attack with 27 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists, while Shaedon Sharpe (20 pts, 9 reb, 5 ast) and Caleb Love (20 pts, 5 reb, 1 ast) provided secondary scoring punch. Donovan Mitchell answered with 33 points and 5 assists for Cleveland, and Evan Mobley anchored the paint with 23 points and 10 rebounds, but the Cavaliers' 110-point total couldn't overcome Portland's 122. The fourth quarter, at just 48 combined points, reflected the defensive suffocation that defined the final half—a stark deceleration from that opening-quarter tempo that proved decisive in pushing the total toward its under destination.
