Game Recap
The third quarter decided it. Oklahoma City and Denver combined for 69 points in that frame—the game's highest-scoring period—and the Thunder used the barrage to seize control en route to a 121–111 victory. The combined total of 232 landed over the 225.5 market line by 6.5 points, though DAGGER leaned under and missed.
The first half stayed tightly wound: 117 combined points across 24 minutes, suggesting a potential defensive grind. The second half, however, veered sharply toward offense. That explosive Q3 gave way to a tepid fourth quarter (46 combined), as Denver's defense tightened while Oklahoma City's offense sputtered to just 20 points in the final 12 minutes. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the Thunder with 34 points, 5 rebounds, and 13 assists, while Cason Wallace added 27 points and Aaron Wiggins contributed 14 points and 6 rebounds. Denver countered with Peyton Watson's 29 points and 5 rebounds—a bright spot in an otherwise uneven Nuggets effort. Nikola Jokić managed only 16 points on 7 rebounds and 8 assists, and Jonas Valanciunas chipped in 13 points and 3 rebounds.
Oklahoma City's recent form—116.2 points per game over its last 10 contests—showed up early and often. Denver's slower-paced average (110.0 ppg) held for stretches but cracked decisively in the third, allowing the Thunder to seize a game that the market had expected to fall just shy of 226.
