Shai Gilgeous-Alexander sets career-high in Thunder 2OT win vs. Pacers

The 2025 NBA Finals rematch did not disappoint. The two teams battled hard all night long and for the second consecutive game, the Oklahoma City Thunder played a game that went into double overtime.

The Pacers were without Tyrese Haliburton, thanks to his unfortunate Achilles injury he suffered in last year’s Finals. But you wouldn’t have known it.

Indiana kept battling, refusing to go away. In Haliburton’s absence, Bennedict Mathurin came up big, scoring 36 points. On this night, however, the game belonged to the reigning MVP.
