The Atlanta Hawks defeated the Orlando Magic 124–112 on March 16 at State Farm Arena, with N. Alexander-Walker's dominant 41-point performance leading the way alongside J. Johnson's 24 points. Atlanta's offense operated efficiently, shooting 46.2 percent from the field and draining 16 three-pointers while maintaining a 119.5 offensive rating. The Hawks controlled the glass with 54 rebounds and distributed 33 assists, though 13 turnovers proved costly at times. Orlando struggled to keep pace, with P. Banchero and D. Bane each scoring 18 points but unable to spark consistent offensive rhythm—the Magic shot just 42.1 percent and made only 14 threes. The game fell short of the Vegas total of 232.5, with Atlanta's third-quarter surge (37 points) proving decisive in building separation. Orlando's defense held firm in stretches, recording nine steals, but Atlanta's balanced attack and superior rebounding advantage ultimately dictated the outcome. The loss marks a continued challenge for Orlando's road performance as the Hawks strengthen their playoff positioning.
