New York Knicks vs Detroit Pistons Final Score & Over/Under Result — Feb 6, 2026

Detroit's defensive grip tightened in a return matchup with New York, as the Pistons' recent form—holding opponents to 110.3 per game over their last 10—proved decisive in this 118–80 rout. The teams had met just three weeks earlier with a combined 211 points; this time, the pace and efficiency cratered dramatically to a final total of 198, landing well under the 219.5 market line. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.

The game's shape was set early. New York managed only 17 in the opening quarter while Detroit built to 28, then the Knicks briefly kept pace in the second frame—combining for 60 points in what became the game's only explosive period. From there, the contest devolved into a grind. The third quarter paired 45 combined points as New York's offense sputtered around 18, and the fourth saw both teams settle into the 28-point range, leaving little room for momentum swings. The halves told the story: 105 points in the first 24 minutes gave way to just 93 in the second, a 12-point deceleration that cemented Detroit's control.

Mikal Bridges led the Knicks with 19 points on limited volume, while Jalen Brunson added 12 with 4 assists and Jordan Clarkson chipped in 11. For Detroit, balanced scoring across Daniss Jenkins (18 points), Tobias Harris (15 with 6 rebounds), and Isaiah Stewart (15 points) proved more than sufficient against a sluggish New York offense. The Pistons' defense held true to form, suffocating any rhythm the visitors might build.
