Dallas Mavericks vs Milwaukee Bucks Final Score & Over/Under Result — Mar 31, 2026

Milwaukee's dominant first half carried the Bucks past Dallas, with 116 combined points in the opening 24 minutes setting a ceiling the Mavericks could never breach. The two teams combined for just 44 points in the third quarter—the game's lowest-scoring frame—as both offenses sputtered, but Milwaukee's early cushion proved insurmountable. Dallas clawed back with 29 points in the fourth to Dallas's 29, but it arrived too late; the Bucks' 123–99 victory reflected a 24-point margin that the fourth quarter's 62 combined points could not erase.

Ryan Rollins led Milwaukee with 24 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists, while Kyle Kuzma added 20 points and 6 rebounds. Cooper Flagg paced Dallas with 19 points and 10 rebounds, complemented by Brandon Williams's 18 points. The opening quarter's 69 combined points—the night's highest-scoring period—set an aggressive tone neither team could sustain; the second half managed just 106 combined as fatigue and tighter defense took hold. Milwaukee, averaging 122.6 points allowed over its last 10 games, held the Mavericks well below that mark in a wire-to-wire performance.

The market had shifted upward from 228.5 at open to 231.5 at close, yet the game settled at 222 combined points. DAGGER leaned under, and it cashed.
