Game Recap
A rematch between teams that had already played once this season—and produced one of the lowest-scoring contests in recent memory—delivered a much higher-volume affair, though still well short of expectations. The Warriors and Clippers combined for 205 points, landing 17.5 points under the 222.5 market total. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.
The first half signaled offensive intent, with teams combining for 106 points through two quarters. The second quarter alone produced 56 combined points, the highest-scoring frame until the fourth quarter exploded. Stephen Curry led Golden State with 27 points on 4 rebounds and 6 assists, while Jimmy Butler III added 24 points with 6 boards. For Los Angeles, Kawhi Leonard posted a well-rounded 24 points, 12 rebounds, and 5 assists, and Kobe Sanders chipped in 20 points with 7 rebounds. The Clippers held a 79-76 advantage through 36 minutes.
The third quarter, however, became a grind: only 34 combined points crossed the scoreboard, the lowest-scoring frame of the night. Golden State's offense dried up with just 13 points, while Los Angeles managed 21. The fourth quarter then lurched back toward volume, combining for 65 points—the game's most prolific frame—as both teams mounted late-game pushes. Gary Payton II chipped in 14 points for Golden State, and John Collins added 18 for the Clippers. Los Angeles escaped with a one-point win, 103–102, in a game that never quite reached the scoreboard's full potential.
