The Atlanta Hawks defeated the Orlando Magic 111–107 on October 24 at Kia Center, with Trae Young leading Atlanta's balanced attack with 25 points while Nicolas Alexander-Walker added 19 in a road victory. Franz Wagner paced Orlando with 27 points, but the Magic's supporting cast couldn't generate enough scoring, with Desmond Bane contributing just 15 points. Atlanta's fourth-quarter surge proved decisive, outscoring Orlando 33–21 in the final frame after the teams traded baskets through three quarters. The Hawks shot 48.2 percent from the field and forced 16 turnovers while committing just 16 themselves, posting a 106.4 offensive rating against Orlando's 102.6. Atlanta's 26 assists and nine steals underscored their superior ball movement and perimeter pressure, offsetting the Magic's 45-rebound edge. The Hawks' late-game execution and defensive intensity in the fourth quarter—holding Orlando to just 21 points—separated the teams down the stretch. This road win suggests Atlanta's offensive balance and depth can compete in close contests early in the season.
