Oklahoma City 131, Utah 101
Game delayed by a smoke machine malfunction and a 12-minute clock outage requiring manual updates and equipment replacement, Oklahoma City led by 30 points at Utah's arena.
- On Sunday, Dec. 7, 2025, in Salt Lake City, the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Utah Jazz 131, with Utah never recovering from a 43-15 first-quarter deficit.
- First, an arena smoke machine above the Oklahoma City Thunder basket activated during live play in the second quarter and was unplugged; a total shot and game clocks malfunction paused play for 12 minutes.
- Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams led the attack, each scoring 25 points while the Thunder shot 11 for 17 from deep and Ousmane Dieng added 14 points on 4-for-5 three-point shooting.
- Players briefly lacked reliable time and score during the third quarter before a crew member manually kept time and Marque Denmon relayed updates, while Jazz staff replaced the scorer's-table controller to restore the Tissot timing system.
- Despite being shorthanded, the Thunder extended their streak to 15 games and hold a historic season start 23-1, showing resilience despite seven unavailable players including Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
