Cleveland Cavaliers vs Los Angeles Clippers Final Score & Over/Under Result — Feb 4, 2026

Cleveland's road dominance continued here, extending a season-long edge over Los Angeles to 2-0 after a 124-91 rout that landed well below the market total. The Cavaliers arrived in town having outscored opponents by 7.4 points per game over their last ten contests, and they wasted no time asserting control—torching the Clippers for 36 points in the first quarter alone as the combined output hit 54. Donovan Mitchell led the charge with 29 points, 5 rebounds, and 9 assists, while Jaylon Tyson added 17 points off the bench.

The second half proved decisive. After a tighter second quarter that saw just 50 combined points, the Cavaliers' defense suffocated Los Angeles in the third, when the combined 58 points marked the game's high-water mark. Cleveland's 32-point third-quarter effort to the Clippers' 26 put the contest out of reach. Kawhi Leonard's team-high 25 points and 7 rebounds came too late to spark a comeback; John Collins chipped in 19 points and 7 boards, but Los Angeles mustered just 91 total in a lopsided defeat. Dennis Schröder paced the Cavaliers' third-quarter execution with 11 points and 6 assists.

The combined 215 fell 6.5 points short of the 221.5 market total. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed, as a second-half grind—111 combined points across the final 24 minutes versus 104 in the first half—kept pace well below the pre-game consensus.
