The Atlanta Hawks edged the Utah Jazz 121–119 on February 5 at State Farm Arena in a defensive slugfest that fell short of the 245.5-point Vegas total. J. Landale led Atlanta with 26 points while N. Alexander-Walker added 23, as the Hawks shot 49 percent from the field and made just 8 three-pointers despite 34 assists. Utah's I. Collier paced the Jazz with 25 points and A. Bailey contributed 20, but Salt Lake City's 12 made threes and 0.465 field-goal percentage could not overcome a fourth-quarter collapse—the Jazz scored only 23 points in the final frame after exploding for 36 in the third. Atlanta's 10 blocks and stingy 119.2 defensive rating proved decisive, while Utah's 7 steals and 49 rebounds kept the contest competitive. The Hawks' balanced attack with 34 assists and controlled turnovers (10) ultimately proved more reliable than the Jazz's perimeter barrage. Atlanta's narrow victory solidifies its conference position while Utah must address fourth-quarter execution.
