Utah Jazz vs Dallas Mavericks Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jan 15, 2026

Utah's recent head-to-head ledger with Dallas suggested a tight affair—the teams had split two meetings this season, with a 230-point combined total in January and a 273-point explosion in December. This matchup landed decisively closer to that higher threshold, as the Jazz and Mavericks combined for 266 points, a 27.5-point push over the 238.5 market total.

The second half proved the difference in the Over's favor. After a relatively restrained 120 combined points in the first half, the teams erupted for 146 in the final 24 minutes, with Q4 alone yielding 75 combined points. Dallas dominated the early going behind Klay Thompson's 26 points and 6 assists, while Naji Marshall added 22 points and 6 rebounds. Utah clawed back late, led by Brice Sensabaugh's team-high 27 points (5 rebounds, 1 assist), with Keyonte George (17 points, 3 assists) and Ace Bailey (15 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists) providing secondary scoring. The Mavericks ultimately prevailed 144–122, but the game's offensive trajectory—relatively even through three quarters before a wide-open fourth—proved decisive for totals players. DAGGER leaned Under heading into tipoff and missed as the back-and-forth pace accelerated late.
