Tyrese Haliburton did it again. The Pacers' star guard pulled off a game winner in the waning moments of Game 1 to give Indiana a 111-110 win and a 1-0 series lead over the Thunder in the 2025 NBA Finals.
Haliburton was one of six Pacers players to tally a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds. Pascal Siakam added 19 points and 10 rebounds, while Aaron Nesmith scored 10 points with 12 boards.
It was a sobering moment for the Thunder, who led the entire game until Haliburton's shot. NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the game with 38 points.
