Portland Fire vs Seattle Storm Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jul 4, 2026

The fourth quarter's 48 combined points — a brisk 12-point jump from the third's 39 — sealed a low-scoring affair that finished well short of expectations. Portland Fire's 77-72 road victory over Seattle Storm landed at 149 total points, a striking 23.5 points under the 172.5 market line. DAGGER's pregame lean to the under cashed decisively.

The game's first half set a cautious tone: just 62 combined points across the opening 24 minutes, with Q1 yielding only 30 and Q2 adding 32. Portland entered halftime down but closer than expected, trailing by three despite Seattle's dominant first quarter (20-10 combined). The second half pivoted toward higher volume—39 combined in Q3 alone—but neither team could sustain offensive rhythm until the final frame's late push. Carla Leite led Portland with 20 points and 4 assists, while Bridget Carleton chipped in 14 points and 7 rebounds. For Seattle, Dominique Malonga scored 22 points, and Natisha Hiedeman added 15 points with 4 assists, but their recent form—85.7 points per game over the last 10 contests—proved hard to elevate. Megan Gustafson's 10 points and 9 rebounds kept Portland competitive on the glass, a critical edge that ultimately held sway in a low-volume game where Seattle's 92.0 points allowed per game finally caught up.
