Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies Final Score & Over/Under Result — Oct 21, 2026

Ty Jerome's 45-point eruption powered Memphis past Utah, but the scoreline itself told a different story: a defensive grind that landed well short of the market's lofty expectations. The Grizzlies' 123-103 victory over the Jazz produced a combined 226 points, undercutting the pregame total of 240.5 by 14.5 and validating DAGGER's pregame UNDER call.

Jerome's offensive clinic—45 points with 7 rebounds and 6 assists—masked a game throttled by defensive intensity throughout. The first half paired explosive scoring in Q1 (60 combined points) with a pronounced slowdown in Q2, which yielded just 55 combined points, setting the tone for a second half that never recaptured early-game pace. Q3 proved the contest's only high-octane stretch, generating 62 combined points, but Memphis clamped down in the fourth quarter, allowing just 49 combined points to seal the outcome. Utah got 22 points and 5 assists from Keyonte George and 18 points with 9 rebounds from Lauri Markkanen, yet the Jazz offense couldn't sustain rhythm against Memphis's resistance. Jerami Grant added 15 points for the Grizzlies, while GG Jackson chipped in 12 points and 8 boards.

The under cashed on the back of deteriorating pace and execution down the stretch—a script that mirrored Memphis's recent form (125.9 points allowed per 10-game average) and Utah's struggle on the road.
