The Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers will play Game 6 of the NBA Finals at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Thursday, June 19.

The Oklahoma City Thunder demonstrated a strong performance in game 5, pushing the series with a 3-2 lead. Jalen Williams posted his career playoff high of 40 points, while Shai Gilgeous-Alexander added 31 points and 10 assists to secure a safe position in the series with a 120-109 win. The duo’s offensive dominance helped thunder a furious Pacers rally and move one win away from their first NBA title.

Meanwhile, the Indian pacers struggled with their weak shooting and late-game execution. Despite Pascal Siakam’s 28 points and T.J. McConnell’s substantial comeback with 13 in the third quarter, they could not steal the game. Moreover, Tyrese Haliburton’s early-game injury to his leg limited his offensive impact, forcing Indiana to adapt late.

Game 6 could go either way, but momentum slightly favors the Thunder after their strong Game 5 surge. Jalen Williams and Gilgeous-Alexander must maintain their efficient scoring and playmaking to close out the series. The Pacers’ hopes rest on Pascal Siakam’s offensive consistency and Tyrese Haliburton’s strong and healthy comeback. Bench support will play a significant role for both teams.
