Charlotte Hornets vs Phoenix Suns Final Score & Over/Under Result — Mar 8, 2026

Devin Booker's 30-point, 10-assist night carried Phoenix past Charlotte, 111–99, as the Suns held the Hornets to just 22 points in the fourth quarter and cashed an UNDER ticket at 210 combined—8.5 points shy of the 218.5 market total. DAGGER leaned under, and it hit.

The game's trajectory pivoted sharply after halftime. A brisk first half saw both teams combine for 118 points, with Q2 standing as the game's highest-scoring frame at 60 combined. But the third quarter proved decisive: the teams managed only 40 combined points, and that defensive clamp—despite some offensive firepower on both sides—set the tone for a second half that finished at 92 combined. Charlotte's LaMelo Ball paced the visitors with 22 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists, while Miles Bridges added 16 and 7 boards. Collin Gillespie chipped in 24 for the Suns, and Jalen Green contributed 24 as well. Yet Phoenix's defense strangled the Hornets down the stretch: after scoring 77 in the opening half, Charlotte managed just 22 in the fourth, a 32-point drop-off that sealed the outcome. The total had drifted down to 217.5 at close, but the game landed eight points lower still, finishing well under the pregame number.
