Golden State Warriors vs Phoenix Suns Final Score & Over/Under Result — Apr 17, 2026

Phoenix's recent defensive prowess—allowing 110.8 points per game over its last ten outings—figured to constrain Golden State's prolific offense, yet the Warriors nearly kept pace in a low-scoring affair that fell well short of expectations. The Suns prevailed 111–96, combining for just 207 points against a 219.5 market total, finishing 12.5 points under. DAGGER's pregame over call missed.

The first half set a sluggish tone, with 95 combined points through two quarters. Q1 saw 48 combined points, then Q2 dipped slightly to 47, as both offenses struggled to find rhythm. Golden State limped into halftime down 50–45, with Brandin Podziemski leading the Warriors with 23 points and 10 rebounds. Phoenix's defense held firm, but the Suns' own scoring remained modest until the second half sparked a late-game surge.

The third quarter brought more offensive flow—52 combined points—before Q4 erupted into the game's highest-scoring frame with 60 combined points. Jalen Green's 36-point barrage carried Phoenix down the stretch, while Devin Booker chipped in 20 points and 8 assists. Stephen Curry managed just 17 points on limited efficiency for Golden State. Despite the fourth-quarter uptick, the game's overall pace and execution never matched the market's expectations, as defensive intensity and conservative shot selection kept totals depressed throughout.
