Raptors set team scoring record for season opener in 138-118 win over Hawks

On Oct. 22, 2025, the Toronto Raptors beat the Atlanta Hawks 138-118 in Atlanta, setting a franchise opening-night scoring record.
Fueled by efficient shooting, the Toronto Raptors shot 57% from the field and 69% on 2-pointers, fueling transition scoring and a late 14-0 run led by Gradey Dick.
Scottie Barnes produced a multi-faceted game, scoring 22 points with nine assists while Gradey Dick added 19 off the bench.
The 14-0 run helped the Toronto Raptors maintain separation; they never let the Atlanta Hawks get within 20 in the fourth, and both teams face rematches on Friday.
Atlanta, meanwhile, must integrate new and returning players as Kristaps Porzingis and Jalen Johnson logged notable debut games while Trae Young struggled under pressure.
