Game Recap
Sacramento's defense has been historically porous this season—allowing 122 points per game over its last 10—and Houston's offense came ready to exploit that weakness. Yet despite the Rockets' scoring prowess, the game never threatened to blow past the 231.5 market total. The combined 54 points in the first quarter set a modest pace, and while Houston's 28 to Sacramento's 26 suggested a potential shootout, the second quarter compressed the action to just 49 combined points. DAGGER's lean to the under was tracking perfectly.
The second half delivered a modest uptick—55 combined in the third quarter, then 58 in the fourth—but the offensive firepower on display never materialized into the ceiling the market had priced. Alperen Sengun led Houston with 28 points and 10 rebounds, and Kevin Durant added 24 points with 8 assists, while Amen Thompson grabbed 12 boards alongside 20 points. For Sacramento, Maxime Raynaud matched Monk's 25-point output, and Malik Monk's 5 assists on his 25 points kept the Kings competitive on volume. Russell Westbrook orchestrated from the bench with 9 assists. Houston's 121 final proved sufficient against Sacramento's 95, and the combined 216 cashed the under by 15.5 points.
