The Oklahoma City Thunder stormed back from a 10-point second-half deficit to beat the Indiana Pacers 111–104 on Friday night, evening the NBA finals at two games apiece.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 15 of his 35 points in the fourth quarter, including nine straight during the decisive run, to cap another gritty, physical battle in a series that has seen momentum swing wildly in every game. The NBA MVP hit a step-back jumper with 2:23 left to give Oklahoma City their first lead since the second quarter, then sank six free throws in the final 44 seconds to seal the win.
