The Toronto Raptors edged the Oklahoma City Thunder 103–101 on January 25 at Paycom Center in a defensive grind that fell short of the 225.5-point Vegas total. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led OKC with 24 points, while Immanuel Quickley paced Toronto with 23 points. The Raptors dominated the glass with 51 rebounds to Oklahoma City's 37 and distributed the ball effectively with 28 assists compared to the Thunder's 21. Toronto's second quarter proved decisive, outscoring OKC 29–20 to build momentum they would not relinquish despite a strong third-quarter response from the hosts (31 points). Both teams shot efficiently in the mid-40s—Toronto at 43 percent from the field and 12 three-pointers, OKC at 44 percent with 11 three-pointers—yet neither could sustain offensive rhythm down the stretch. Toronto's defense suffocated Oklahoma City in the final quarter, holding them to just 20 points, while the Raptors' 10 steals created multiple transition opportunities. The victory improves Toronto's road resilience and underscores their ability to win tight contests through rebounding and ball movement.
