Game Recap
Orlando's dominant 31-point win over Washington just two months ago set expectations for a low-scoring rematch, and this defensive battle largely delivered on that script. The Wizards held serve at home with a 120–112 victory, combining for just 232 points—well below the 235.5 market total. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.
The first half moved deliberately. Washington and Orlando traded buckets through matching 30-point and 29-point opening quarters (59 combined), then the pace ground further in Q2, which produced just 53 combined points as Washington built a slim advantage. The third quarter finally cracked open, with both teams finding rhythm in a 76-point explosion that proved decisive—Washington outscored Orlando 39–37 in that frame to seize control. From there, a sluggish fourth quarter (44 combined) sealed the total under, as both offenses sputtered down the stretch.
CJ McCollum led Washington's charge with 27 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists, while Alex Sarr added 23 points and 7 rebounds. Justin Champagnie chipped in 17. For Orlando, Jase Richardson scored a team-high 20 points with 3 rebounds and 3 assists; Desmond Bane contributed 15 points, and Paolo Banchero posted 14 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists. The Wizards' defense—allowing 114.9 per game over their last ten—and Orlando's own struggles (119.0 allowed) combined to keep the lid on, validating the under thesis in a matchup where neither team's recent scoring rate held sway.
