Dallas Wings vs Golden State Valkyries Final Score & Over/Under Result — Aug 17, 2026

Golden State's defensive clamp in the second quarter—when the teams combined for just 33 points—set the tone for a slugfest that fell well short of expectations. The Valkyries held Dallas to 9 points in that frame while scoring 24 themselves, building separation that proved durable even as both offenses found rhythm down the stretch. The combined 40 points in the fourth suggested late-game pace, but the damage was already done: a first half that totaled 72 combined points had already buried the market total of 162.5.

Dallas Wings shot back with 24 fourth-quarter points and held Golden State to 16, but Gabby Williams and Veronica Burton anchored the Valkyries' 78-70 win. Williams finished with 23 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists; Burton added 16 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists. For Dallas, Paige Bueckers led with 21 points, 3 assists, and 2 rebounds, while Arike Ogunbowale chipped in 17 points with 4 boards. The final combined 148 landed under the number by 14.5 points—a stark reversal from recent head-to-head meetings that produced 170 and 171. DAGGER's pregame over call missed, but a live adjustment cashed the under, capturing a defensive second half that suffocated any scoring surge.
