NBA Finals Game 1: Thunder vs. Pacers start time, schedule, expert prediction, TV, stream, betting odds
The Indiana Pacers start the NBA Finals tonight against the Oklahoma City Thunder at the Paycom Center. Indiana — which last made the Finals in 2000 and is seeking its first NBA championship — was the Eastern Conference No. 4 seed before defeating the Milwaukee Bucks, Cleveland Cavaliers and New York Knicks. Pascal Siakam earned Eastern Conference Finals MVP honors. OKC, led by league MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, had the NBA's best regular-season and beat the Memphis Grizzlies, Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference playoffs. The Thunder are in their first NBA Finals since 2012 and have not win a championship in Oklahoma City.

Dustin Dopirak, IndyStar: Thunder 117-110 "Rick Carlisle has been in awe of the Thunder's roster construction, noting a lack of holes. They have top-of-the-line perimeter defenders on both the first and second units, switchable defenders on the wings and excellent rim protection. Plus, of course, the MVP in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander driving the train on offense. The Pacers are on a magical run and they have a legitimate chance to win this series, but if it's going to happen, it will probably take a game or two for them to get into the flow of the series and develop adjustments. For them to pull that off in Game 1 would be a lot to ask." Pacers: Jarace Walker (ankle) and Isaiah Jackson (Achilles) are out. Thunder: None.

Keith hits tiebreaking double in 8th as Tigers regroup to beat White Sox 5-4
CHICAGO — Colt Keith hit a tiebreaking RBI double in the eighth inning to help the major league-leading Detroit Tigers beat the lowly Chicago White Sox 5-4 on a rainy Wednesday night. The Tigers regrouped after blowing a four-run lead and bounced back from an 8-1 pounding the previous day. Wenceel Pérez was ruled safe at second with a leadoff double to center against Brandon Eisert (2-1) in the eighth after a successful replay challenge by Detroit. He scored with one out on Colt Keith's bloop double down the left field line that landed just fair beyond a sliding left fielder Andrew Benintendi's glove, making it 5-4. Will Vest (5-0) pitched two scoreless innings, and Tommy Kahnle worked the ninth for his eighth save in 11 chances. The Tigers tagged White Sox starter Jared Shuster for four runs in the first after a 95-minute delay. Riley Greene drove in two with a single and scored in the inning. Chicago's Mike Tauchman hit an RBI double and scored in the third. Benintendi doubled leading off the fourth and came around when Josh Rojas chased Tigers starter Sawyer Gipson-Long with a sacrifice fly. Benintendi tied it at 4 in the fifth with a bases-loaded sac fly against Tyler Holton. Gipson-Long lasted 3 2/3 innings in his first start in nearly two years, allowing three runs and five hits. The 27-year-old right-hander missed last season with elbow and hip injuries that required surgery. Shuster, the opener in a bullpen game, gave up four runs and five hits in one inning. Both teams loaded the bases in the fifth. The Tigers came away empty-handed when Steven Wilson struck out Colt Keith. After Benintendi tied it in the bottom half, pinch hitter Austin Slater flied to center, ending the inning. The Tigers have won 20 of 25 against Chicago. The Tigers send RHP Casey Mize (6-1, 2.82 ERA) to the mound Thursday, while the White Sox go with Sean Burke (3-6, 4.20). ___ AP MLB:
