Philadelphia 76ers vs Milwaukee Bucks Final Score & Over/Under Result — Dec 5, 2025

Quentin Grimes's 22 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists led Philadelphia past Milwaukee, but the real story was a second half that never materialized for either team. The 76ers and Bucks combined for just 99 points after halftime, a sharp deceleration from the 118 they posted in the opening 24 minutes, and the culprit in a 217 combined finish that fell 4.5 short of the 221.5 market total. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.

The game's trajectory turned in Q2, when the teams erupted for 65 combined points—the highest-scoring quarter of the night—to build momentum into the break. Philadelphia's Paul George contributed 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists to the visitors' offensive pressure, while Milwaukee's Bobby Portis Jr. and Kevin Porter Jr. answered with 22 and 20 points respectively. But the defensive walls tightened after intermission. The third quarter yielded just 52 combined points, and the fourth fell to 47, draining rhythm from both offenses. Jabari Walker chipped in 18 for the 76ers; Turner's 19 for the Bucks couldn't stop the bleeding. Philadelphia's 116-101 victory marked its second win over Milwaukee this season—the clubs' prior meeting on November 20 had exploded to 237 combined points—a reminder that even familiar opponents can tell wildly different stories.
