The Atlanta Hawks defeated the Brooklyn Nets 115–104 on February 22 at State Farm Arena, with J. Johnson leading the way on 26 points and N. Alexander-Walker adding 17 in a balanced offensive effort. Atlanta shot 48.3 percent from the field and made 13 three-pointers while holding Brooklyn to 44.7 percent shooting and 12 made threes, a decisive efficiency gap that proved decisive. The Hawks controlled the glass with 52 rebounds to Brooklyn's 34 and generated 28 assists on their scoring, though both teams committed similar turnover rates (Atlanta 15, Brooklyn 13). A fourth-quarter collapse by the Nets—who scored just 17 points in the final frame—sealed the outcome after they had kept pace through three quarters. M. Porter Jr. led Brooklyn with 18 points and N. Claxton contributed 15, but the supporting cast couldn't sustain enough offense. The game fell well short of the Vegas total of 227.5, finishing 11 points under. Atlanta's defensive rating of 105.4 proved the difference, suggesting the Hawks' interior presence remains a critical asset as they navigate playoff positioning.
