Philadelphia 76ers vs Memphis Grizzlies Final Score & Over/Under Result — Dec 30, 2025

Memphis's league-leading scoring pace over its last ten games—118.8 points per contest—collided with Philadelphia's stingy defensive average of 110.9 allowed, but the 76ers' own offensive limitations (110.4 scored per game) gave way to a shooting gallery in Memphis. The result was a 139–136 overtime thriller that shattered expectations: the combined 275 points soared 39.5 above the market total of 235.5, with the first half alone accounting for 144 combined points and the opening quarter posting 74.

Ja Morant led the Grizzlies with 40 points and 3 assists, while Cedric Coward contributed 28 points and 16 rebounds. For Philadelphia, Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey each scored 34 points—Embiid adding 10 rebounds and 8 assists, Maxey distributing 12 assists—with VJ Edgecombe chipping in 25 points. The game tightened dramatically after halftime: the second half combined for just 112 points across regulation's final 24 minutes and overtime, yet the back-and-forth intensity forced an extra period where Memphis and Philadelphia combined for 19 more points before the 76ers edged through.

DAGGER's pregame lean to the under proved incorrect as the offensive fireworks in the first two quarters set a pace the defensive second half could not fully contain. Philadelphia escaped with the road victory despite being outscored in the fourth quarter and overtime combined, surviving Morant's explosive night.
