Oklahoma City Thunder vs Miami Heat Final Score & Over/Under Result — Jan 17, 2026

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's 39 points proved decisive in a back-and-forth contest that opened hot before cooling considerably down the stretch. The Thunder guard led Oklahoma City to a 120-122 road loss, a result that saw the combined total of 242 sail over the 235.5 market line by 6.5 points—a miss for DAGGER's pregame under call.

The opening quarter set a frenetic pace, with the two teams combining for 67 points. Miami's Bam Adebayo anchored the Heat with 30 points and 12 rebounds, while Norman Powell added 19 points as Miami stayed competitive early. But Oklahoma City seized momentum through the first half, outscoring Miami 37-30 in Q1 and holding serve at 28-30 in Q2 to enter halftime with the combined first-half total standing at 125 points. Aaron Wiggins chipped in 18 points and 6 rebounds for the Thunder, and Ajay Mitchell contributed 15 points as Oklahoma City controlled the tempo.

The pace slowed considerably after intermission. The second half combined for just 117 points as both defenses tightened—Q3 saw 65 combined points while Q4 dropped to 52. Miami's Pelle Larsson scored 16 points off the bench, and the Heat's defense stiffened enough to steal a narrow victory despite being outscored in three of the four quarters. Oklahoma City's earlier visit to Miami this season ended 112-124 (total 236), and this rematch proved similarly tight on the scoreboard if notably higher overall.
