Phoenix Suns vs Washington Wizards Final Score & Over/Under Result — Dec 29, 2025

The market opened at 233.5, and neither team had any intention of cooperating with that number. Phoenix and Washington combined for just 45 points in the first quarter—a sluggish start that immediately signaled this game would settle below consensus. The second quarter brought some life, with a combined 70 points, the game's highest-scoring frame, but even that surge wasn't enough to put the total back in play. By halftime, the combined 115 points had already established a clear under trajectory, and the final two quarters—51 and 50 combined, respectively—sealed it. The Suns prevailed 115–101, combining for just 216 points, 17.5 points shy of the projected ceiling. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.

Dillon Brooks led Phoenix with 26 points on efficient shooting, while Collin Gillespie added 25 points and 6 assists to pace the offense. Devin Booker contributed 22 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists despite limited scoring load. For Washington, Tre Johnson led the way with 24 points, but the Wizards couldn't generate enough offensive rhythm. CJ McCollum had 17 points and 4 assists, and Bilal Coulibaly chipped in 13 points and 7 rebounds, but the supporting cast couldn't push the pace or volume enough to threaten the line.

Both teams came in running cold—Washington averaging 115.1 points over their last ten games while allowing 121.6, and Phoenix scoring just 110.8 with a 114.7 defensive average. The total reflected that defensive tenor from the opening tip.
