Sacramento Kings vs Memphis Grizzlies Final Score & Over/Under Result — Feb 23, 2026

Sacramento's road trip to Memphis proved emblematic of a season-long trend: the Kings' defense has struggled to contain opponents (122.7 allowed per 10 games), while the Grizzlies' own permitting issues (123.1 allowed in the same span) have left both teams vulnerable on that end. This matchup echoed their recent history—the three prior meetings had ranged from a high-scoring 254 down to a defensive 222—and Friday's result landed squarely in the middle of that volatility at 237 combined points.

The Kings' offensive aggression set the tone early, outscoring Memphis 33–25 in the first quarter as Russell Westbrook (25 pts, 7 ast) orchestrated ball movement. The second quarter exploded into the game's highest-scoring frame: a combined 66 points that sent the halftime total to 124. Memphis trimmed the margin with a stingy third quarter (28 to Sacramento's 29), but Sacramento's balanced fourth-quarter output (31 points) ultimately proved decisive in the 123–114 victory. Precious Achiuwa anchored Sacramento's rebounding with 22 points and 12 boards, while Javon Small (21 pts, 9 ast) and GG Jackson (16 pts, 6 reb) led Memphis's bench efforts.

DAGGER leaned under at 233.5 and missed as the total sailed to 237, a 3.5-point overage driven by the first half's offensive outburst.
