We’re heading back to Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indiana as the Pacers host the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 6 of the 2025 NBA Finals!

Jalen Williams scored 40 points, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander added 31, and Indiana’s traditional fourth-quarter comeback came up a little bit short as the Thunder took a 3-2 series lead after Game 5’s 120-109 OKC victory.

Tyrese Haliburton finished with only four points on 0-6 shooting after he aggravated his calf injury in the first quarter. Per ESPN, Indiana’s star guard suffered a strained right calf and will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury. Haliburton has his sights set on playing Game 6, telling reporters, “If I can walk, then I want to play.”
