Washington Wizards vs Philadelphia 76ers Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jan 7, 2026

Washington's recent visits to Philadelphia had been lopsided affairs—the teams' last two meetings produced a 121-102 shellacking in December and a 139-134 shootout in October, leaving the 76ers with the upper hand. This matchup proved another comfortable victory for the home side, though the path there was far more competitive than those prior results suggested.

Philadelphia built early separation behind Joel Embiid's 28 points, 7 rebounds, and Paul George's 23 points alongside 5 assists. The 76ers' opening quarter set the tone at 37 combined points, but Washington refused to fold. Tre Johnson led the Wizards with 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists, while Bub Carrington distributed 18 points and 7 assists to keep the visitors within striking distance. After a sluggish second half opened with just 54 combined points in the third quarter, both offenses ignited in the fourth—69 combined points, the game's highest output—but Philadelphia's 39-point fourth quarter frame proved the decisive margin.

The final 241 combined points sailed cleanly over the market total of 233.5, landing 7.5 points higher. Despite both teams' recent offensive averages hovering near 117–118 points per game, the 76ers' balance and the Wizards' refusal to surrender produced a shootout. Tyrese Maxey chipped in 22 points and 8 assists for Philadelphia, while Bilal Coulibaly added 18 points for Washington. DAGGER leaned under pregame and missed the call.
