NBA Finals, Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder
Digest more
Gilgeous-Alexander was off his game for much of the night, but played like the league MVP in the fourth to lead the OKC rally.
The result was only the second clutch game the Pacers lost this postseason, a 111-104 Thunder win that ties the series up at 2-2. What has been a highly entertaining, well-played Finals will see Game 5 Monday night in Oklahoma City. It also feels like a series that is going to go seven games.
The Indiana Pacers will face off against the Oklahoma City Thunder Friday in Game 4 of the 2025 NBA Finals at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The Pacers are leading the Finals 2-1 and have the home court advantage tonight.
Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault opens up about dealing with the pressure from the Indiana Pacers in Game 4.
However, what won the 68 games and got them to the Finals was their defense, and the Pacers torched that for a long stretch of Game 3. Indiana took better shots and capitalized on them, finishing with a 116 offensive rating (9.5 points higher than the Thunder allowed on average during the playoffs coming into the game).
