Memphis Grizzlies vs Houston Rockets Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jan 26, 2026

The 225.5 market total looked vulnerable from the jump. Memphis and Houston combined for just 47 points in the first quarter—already tracking well below the closing number—and the pace never recovered despite a Q2 spike. The second frame saw the teams combine for 58 points, the game's high-water mark, pushing the halftime aggregate to 105. But the Rockets and Grizzlies managed only 102 combined in the second half, closing at 207 total and sending DAGGER's UNDER call to a clean hit, 18.5 points below the number.

Houston's duo of Alperen Sengun and Kevin Durant powered the Rockets past Memphis. Sengun finished with 33 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists, while Durant added 33 points and 8 rebounds. Tari Eason chipped in 17 points and 7 boards in a 108-99 victory. Memphis' Jaren Jackson Jr. and Santi Aldama each posted 17 points with 7 rebounds; GG Jackson added 14. The Grizzlies' 22-point fourth quarter sealed a sluggish final frame that mirrored the game's overall tone—a defensive-minded affair that matched neither team's recent scoring pace.
