Isaiah Hartenstein had his first career triple-double and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 20 points as the Oklahoma City Thunder blew out the Orlando Magic 128-92 at home Tuesday.
Hartenstein had 12 points, 10 rebounds and a career-high 10 assists, securing the triple-double when he picked up an assist on Isaiah Joe's 3-pointer five minutes into the fourth quarter.
Joe came off the bench for a game-high 22 points, tying a season high, while Luguentz Dort scored 18 and Chet Holmgren had 16 points and 10 rebounds.
The Thunder jumped out to a big lead early and were never seriously threatened the rest of the way in their third win in four games.
Jalen Suggs led Orlando with 20 points, going 7 of 11 from the field. Paolo Banchero had 17.
After a quick start, Gilgeous-Alexander cooled considerably, but used a third-quarter burst to keep his streak of 20-plus games alive. Gilgeous-Alexander has now reached the mark in 121 consecutive games, moving him five games from tying Wilt Chamberlain for the NBA record.
Whether Gilgeous-Alexander would continue the streak was about the only drama left in the second half, after the Thunder outscored the Magic 39-14 in the first quarter.
The Magic's 14 points were their lowest in the first quarter since scoring 11 in the first quarter against Golden State in March 2024.
Orlando missed its first 10 3-point tries, not connecting until early in the second quarter.
The Magic fell behind big early for the second consecutive game. In Sunday's loss in San Antonio, Orlando trailed by as many as 18 points in the first quarter.
Hartenstein's night was done shortly after his 10th assist as Oklahoma City's starters were able to get rest late on the first night of a back-to-back.
By the time Gilgeous-Alexander hit his first shot, he had three assists and three rebounds. Gilgeous-Alexander assisted on the first two made shots of the game -- both Dort 3-pointers.
Gilgeous-Alexander finished 8 of 22 from the field, and added nine assists, five rebounds and two steals. He had 10 points and six assists in the first quarter.
Joe delivered the highlight of the first half, cutting down the lane through the basket, taking a bounce pass from Hartenstein and finishing with a thunderous dunk over Banchero and drawing the foul midway through the second quarter.
After trailing by as many as 35, Orlando cut the deficit to 23 midway through the third quarter but Oklahoma City quickly widened the lead again and the Magic never got any closer.
The Magic shot a season-low 38.2% from the field.
