Sacramento Kings vs Charlotte Hornets Final Score & Over/Under Result — Mar 24, 2026

Sacramento's defense proved suffocating early, but Charlotte's offensive firepower ultimately overwhelmed the Kings in a game that opened at 232.5 and settled well below it. The Hornets and Kings combined for 59 points in the first quarter—a pace that suggested the over might hold—but the second half told a different story. After matching that opening frame with 60 combined points in Q2, the teams exploded for 70 in the third quarter, bringing the game within striking distance of the number at 189 through three. The fourth quarter collapsed entirely, however. Just 35 combined points in the final stanza sent the game to a 224 final, landing 8.5 points under the market total.

Charlotte dominated the scoreboard from start to finish, winning 134–90 behind balanced scoring led by Coby White's 27 points and LaMelo Ball's 20 points with 8 assists. Moussa Diabaté chipped in 17 points and 11 rebounds to anchor the glass. Sacramento's Daeqwon Plowden led the Kings with 22 points, while Devin Carter added 18 points and 3 assists, and Maxime Raynaud contributed 16 points and 7 rebounds in a losing effort. The 44-point margin marked a stark departure from their most recent meeting this season, a tight 117–109 Charlotte victory that totaled 226. DAGGER's pregame over call missed the mark, though the model's live adjustment found the under and cashed.
