Milwaukee Bucks vs Minnesota Timberwolves Final Score & Over/Under Result — Dec 21, 2025

The market sat at 226.5, but the opening quarter signaled trouble for over bettors immediately—Milwaukee and Minnesota combined for just 52 points in Q1, a pace that would have landed well short of the number even if sustained. The second quarter brought modest relief with 56 combined points, pushing the halftime total to 108, still 8.5 points below the projected halfway mark to 226.5. But the second half proved the decisive evidence: a grinding third quarter yielded only 42 combined points, the lowest of the evening, and though the fourth quarter ticked up to 53, the final combined 203 finished 23.5 points under the pregame line. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.

Kevin Porter Jr. led Milwaukee with 24 points, 10 rebounds, and 9 assists in a near-triple-double effort, while Bobby Portis Jr. added 16 points and 11 rebounds. Ryan Rollins chipped in 16 points and 5 assists for the Bucks. Anthony Edwards paced Minnesota with 24 points and 6 assists, and Donte DiVincenzo contributed 18 points. Julius Randle finished with 12 points and 7 rebounds. Despite the Timberwolves' recent 119.8-point scoring average, and Milwaukee's defensive struggles allowing 114.0 per game over their last 10, neither offense found rhythm for much of the contest—a reality that reshaped the total from the opening whistle onward.
