New York Knicks vs Golden State Warriors Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jan 15, 2026

The market opened at 228.5, but Golden State and New York had other plans from the opening tip. The first quarter exploded for 65 combined points, immediately signaling an over-friendly pace that would define the evening. By halftime, the teams had combined for 121 points, already tracking well ahead of the closing number, and the Warriors held a narrow 62-59 advantage despite Jimmy Butler III's dominant first half presence.

The second half tightened considerably. Q3 brought another 65-point quarter as both offenses remained efficient, pushing the combined total to 186 through three periods. But Q4 cooled dramatically to just 53 combined points, a significant drop that kept the final total just shy of runaway territory. Golden State's 126 points proved enough to hold off New York's 113, with Butler III finishing with 32 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists to lead the Warriors. Stephen Curry added 27 points and 7 assists, while Moses Moody chipped in 21. The Knicks' balanced attack—OG Anunoby and Miles McBride each scored 25 points, with McBride adding 6 assists, and Mikal Bridges contributing 21—couldn't quite close the gap. The final combined 239 points landed 10.5 above the market total, an outcome DAGGER's pregame under call did not anticipate.
