San Antonio Spurs vs Boston Celtics Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jan 10, 2026

The 231.5 market total looked vulnerable from the jump. Boston opened with 26 points and San Antonio answered with 21, combining for just 47 in a first quarter that immediately suggested a grind ahead. The second quarter erupted—58 combined points flipped the script entirely—but that proved the ceiling. After halftime, defenses tightened substantially: the second half yielded only 90 combined points across two quarters, as Boston's 20-point efforts in both Q3 and Q4 couldn't generate the offensive volume the pregame number demanded. San Antonio's late surge, outscoring the Celtics 27–20 in the fourth, came too late to lift the combined total anywhere near the 231.5 ask. Final combined score: 195. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed by 36.5.

Derrick White led Boston's scoring with 29 points, 9 rebounds, and 3 assists, while Jaylen Brown added 27 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists in support. San Antonio countered with balanced scoring: De'Aaron Fox and Victor Wembanyama each posted 21 points, Fox adding 9 rebounds and 6 assists, while Keldon Johnson chipped in 18 points and 10 rebounds. Boston's recent clip of 120.8 points per game over its last ten proved far above what materialized here. San Antonio's 116.5 scoring average likewise couldn't sustain the pregame projection. The game's rhythm—hot early in Q2, then defensive grip throughout the second half—simply didn't align with the total's inflated premise.
