Atlanta Hawks vs Los Angeles Lakers Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jan 13, 2026

The second quarter decided this one. Los Angeles and Atlanta combined for 74 points in that frame, a 27-point swing from the opening quarter's 67, and it proved decisive: the Lakers' 44-point second quarter helped them build a cushion they'd never surrender en route to a 141-116 victory. The combined total of 257 sailed 23.5 points over the 233.5 market line, with the first half accounting for 141 combined points—more than 60% of the night's output already locked in by intermission.

The Hawks kept pace early, combining just four points fewer than the Lakers in Q1 (30 to 37), but Los Angeles' second-quarter barrage set the tone. Nickeil Alexander-Walker led Atlanta's scoring with 26 points and CJ McCollum added 25, while Corey Kispert chipped in 19, yet it wasn't enough to chase the deficit. LeBron James dominated for the home team with 31 points, 9 rebounds, and 10 assists, while Luka Dončić supplied 27 points and 12 assists. Deandre Ayton's 18 rebounds anchored the paint for Los Angeles. The third quarter tightened dramatically—just 47 combined points—but the Lakers' halftime lead proved insurmountable. DAGGER leaned under and missed, as the pair combined for a brisk, high-scoring affair that erased early concerns about pace and volume.
