Utah Jazz vs Brooklyn Nets Final Score & Over/Under Result — Dec 4, 2025

The 231.5 market total looked vulnerable from the opening tip. Brooklyn's first quarter brought just 29 points combined with Utah's 20, a sluggish 49-point opening that immediately signaled a slower pace than oddsmakers anticipated. The Nets recovered slightly in the second, posting 29 again while the Jazz pushed to 29 of their own, but the halves still landed just 107 combined—well short of the 231.5 pace required to clear the number.

Utah's third quarter changed the math entirely. The Jazz exploded for 32 points while Brooklyn kept pace with 32 of their own, producing a 64-point quarter that swung momentum decisively toward the over. A fourth-quarter combined 62 points sealed the fate: the final total of 233 cleared the market by 1.5 points, a narrow miss for the under.

Lauri Markkanen led Utah's offensive charge with 30 points and 8 rebounds, while Keyonte George orchestrated the Jazz attack with 29 points and 10 assists. Brooklyn countered with Noah Clowney's 29 points and Ziaire Williams's 23, but the supporting cast couldn't sustain enough momentum. DAGGER leaned under, and the game proved it wrong—a gutsy over that hinged on Utah's second-half dominance. The Jazz's 42-point fourth quarter and their recent scoring prowess (122.7 per game in their last 10) ultimately overwhelmed the Nets' defensive limitations.
