Portland Fire vs Seattle Storm Final Score & Over/Under Result — Apr 29, 2026

Seattle's defense has been leaning on opponents in recent weeks—allowing just 83.2 points per game over the last 10—but Portland found enough offensive rhythm to keep pace on Friday night. The Fire scored 81 against the Storm's stout scheme, yet the combined 172 still sailed well past the 163.5 market total, landing 8.5 points over as a high-scoring first quarter set the tone early.

That opening frame saw 46 combined points, with Seattle jumping out to 27 and Portland answering with 19. The Storm extended their lead through the second quarter, where the pace slowed: just 41 combined as Seattle built to 45 points at halftime against Portland's 42. The second half remained competitive but lower-scoring. Q3 fell to 40 combined, then Q4 climbed back to 45, but Seattle's steady accumulation—24 in the fourth—sealed the 91-81 win.

DAGGER leaned over pregame, and it cashed. While the Storm's recent defensive profile suggested a lower ceiling, the opener's pace and Portland's offensive aggression proved more durable than the number anticipated. The quarter-by-quarter split—front-loaded by that fast Q1, steadied by a methodical second half—revealed a game that started hot and stayed well-fed enough to clear the line despite Seattle's ability to keep totals down.
