The Toronto Raptors defeated the Atlanta Hawks 134–117 on January 3, 2026, at Scotiabank Arena, pulling away decisively in the fourth quarter when Atlanta managed just 11 points. B. Ingram and R. Barrett each scored 29 points for Toronto, which shot 53.3 percent from the field and made 12 three-pointers while committing only 14 turnovers. The Raptors' defense was suffocating down the stretch, holding a 124.7 offensive rating against Atlanta's 109.0 defensive rating. Despite strong performances from N. Alexander-Walker (31 points) and J. Johnson (30 points), the Hawks' fourth-quarter collapse—scoring fewer points than any other frame—proved fatal; Atlanta also shot just 46.2 percent and turned the ball over 15 times. Toronto's 48 rebounds and 28 assists showcased balanced execution, while the Hawks' 32 assists couldn't overcome their efficiency gaps. The game fell well short of the 232.5-point Vegas total, finishing at 251 combined points. Toronto's dominant fourth-quarter defense signals the team's championship-caliber potential moving forward.
