Washington Wizards vs Detroit Pistons Final Score & Over/Under Result — Feb 5, 2026

Cade Cunningham's 30 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists led Detroit's offensive charge, but it wasn't enough to keep pace with Washington in a high-scoring affair that shattered the pregame ceiling. The Wizards' 126-117 road victory delivered a combined 243 points—15.5 points over the 227.5 market total—as the second half's 135 combined points overwhelmed a defensive first-half stalemate of 108. DAGGER leaned under, and it missed.

The third quarter proved decisive: combined scoring jumped to 71 points, the game's highest-output frame, with Washington's 39 points outpacing Detroit's 32. Will Riley (20 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast) and Sharife Cooper (18 pts, 3 reb, 5 ast) spearheaded Washington's attack, while Duncan Robinson added 21 points off Detroit's bench. The Pistons' recent form—117.0 points per game over their last 10—couldn't sustain the pace. Ausar Thompson chipped in 13 points and 9 rebounds for Detroit, but the Wizards' Justin Champagnie (14 pts, 7 reb) and their supporting cast kept the pressure mounting.

The teams had met once this season on November 10, when a 272-point combined effort suggested high-octane potential. This contest followed suit: after a measured opening half, the second half unfolded as an offensive showcase, with the fourth quarter alone producing 64 combined points. Washington's road efficiency in the closing stretch proved the difference.
