Oklahoma City Thunder vs Atlanta Hawks Final Score & Over/Under Result — Oct 12, 2026

The market total of 224.5 proved prescient—just barely. Oklahoma City's visit to Atlanta finished at 223 combined points, a single possession short of the over and well within the range of late-game variance. The opening quarter set the tempo for a slugfest: 57 combined points in Q1 signaled firepower from both sides, with the Hawks (29) and Thunder (28) nearly matching each other's offensive punch. That early pace, however, decelerated sharply in the second quarter, which saw just 48 combined points—the game's slowest frame—suggesting both defenses tightened as Atlanta held a 56–49 halftime lead.

The second half mirrored the first in structure but accelerated the volume. Q3 produced 53 combined points as Oklahoma City mounted a comeback, outscoring the Hawks 30–23 to seize momentum. That surge carried into a fourth quarter that exploded for 65 combined points, the game's high-water mark, but it wasn't enough for the Thunder. B. Stirtz led OKC with 26 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists, while Brooks Barnhizer added 20 points and 8 rebounds. A. Mara chipped in 17 points, 10 rebounds, and 6 assists. Atlanta's Jock Landale (17 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast) and Nickeil Alexander-Walker (16 pts, 6 reb, 5 ast) provided steady contributions in a 113–110 Hawks victory. The under cashed by 1.5, a fitting capstone to a game that tracked the market total nearly to the decimal.
