Philadelphia 76ers vs Utah Jazz Final Score & Over/Under Result — Mar 21, 2026

Quentin Grimes led Philadelphia's offensive attack with 25 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists, powering the 76ers past Utah with a 126–116 victory. The combined 242 points landed comfortably over the 229.5 market total, a 12.5-point excess that masked a tale of two halves: a scorching first 24 minutes that produced 134 combined points gave way to a grinding second half that managed just 108.

The opening quarter set the tone for the evening, with Q1 producing 72 combined points as both offenses found rhythm early. Philadelphia's offense stayed aggressive into the second quarter despite a 36-point Utah frame, though the combined scoring dipped to 62 points. The game's momentum shifted sharply in the third quarter, when combined scoring fell to 55—a 17-point swing from Q2—and Philadelphia's 31 points proved decisive. Utah's Ace Bailey countered with 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists, while VJ Edgecombe chipped in 22 points and 13 rebounds for Philadelphia, but it wasn't enough to keep the Jazz within reach. The fourth quarter's 53 combined points underscored how thoroughly the pace had slowed by game's end.

DAGGER's live call missed the mark on this one, despite the game's ultimate over status. Philadelphia's balanced attack—Trendon Watford added 20 points and 9 rebounds—and Utah's depth from Kennedy Chandler (19 points) and Elijah Harkless (15 points, 5 assists) weren't sufficient to overcome the defensive tightening that defined the second half.
