Thunder vs. Pacers 2025 NBA Finals Game 6: Live updates, highlights for Thursday's game
The Oklahoma City Thunder travel on the road to face the Indiana Pacers for Game 6 of the 2025 NBA Finals on Thursday. The Thunder hold a 3-2 series lead in the 2025 NBA Finals.
The Thunder are on the cusp of a championship. Jalen Williams had the game of his life with 40 points in a 120-109 Game 5 win on Monday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was the co-headliner with 31 points and 10 assists.
Meanwhile, the Pacers could be in trouble. Tyrese Haliburton had a quiet four points and six assists in their Game 5 loss. He suffered a calf strain that puts his Game 6 status in the air. If he's out, that jeopardizes Indiana's chances of forcing a Game 7.

Tyrese Haliburton plays through injury, sparks Pacers to force Game 7
INDIANAPOLIS — For Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton, one good leg was more than enough to deny the Oklahoma City Thunder its first chance to win the NBA championship. Haliburton gutted through a right calf strain that limited his mobility and pop to spark Indiana's 108-91 Game 6 victory over Oklahoma City at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Thursday, pushing the NBA Finals to Game 7 for the first time since 2016. The Thunder will host the winner-take-all series finale Sunday night.

Thunder vs. Pacers NBA Finals: Indiana overwhelms OKC, sets up winner-take-all Game 7 for NBA championship
Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton reacts after making a three pointer against the Oklahoma City Thunder during the second half of Game 3 of the NBA Finals basketball series, Wednesday, June 11, 2025, in Indianapolis. (AP Photo/Michael Conroy) Tyrese Haliburton was ready for Game 6. As were his Indiana Pacers teammates. The Pacers blitzed the Oklahoma City Thunder Thursday night in the first quarter and never looked back en route to a 108-91 Game 6 win in the NBA Finals. Advertisement It was an overwhelming effort from the Pacers against what by most measures is the NBA's best team. But don't tell the Pacers that. At a minimum, the win ensured that there would be no Thunder championship celebration on their home court. And it puts the Pacers alongside the Thunder, one win away from an NBA championship in a winner-take-all Game 7 for the title. With Haliburton ailing with a strained right calf that in part limited him to just four points and a Game 5 Pacers loss, few picked the Pacers to win Thursday night. But few have picked the Pacers to reach multiple milestones in their playoff journey. In hindsight, it should be of no surprise that Indiana refused to relent on its home court with its season on the line. But the manner in which the Pacers won was still stunning. The Thunder look like a team ready to deliver a knockout blow in the game's opening moments as the Pacers missed their first eight field-goal attempts and Oklahoma City seized a 10-2 lead. But the Pacers got aggressive on defense and caught fire from deep for a 24-7 run of their own to take control of the game at 26-17. They never gave it back. Advertisement Indiana extended its lead to 64-42 at the half with a second quarter-surge that ended with a poster dunk by Pascal Siakam and a halftime buzzer-beater from the Indiana forward on consecutive possessions. The 13-point lead Indiana took earlier in the quarter was previously its largest of the Finals. By halftime, it reached 22. And the Thunder didn't score their first bucket of the third quarter until 7:15 remaining. By the end of the third quarter, the Indiana lead has stretched to 90-60 as the Pacers held the Thunder to their lowest point total of the entire season through three quarters. The fourth quarter was a celebration for a Pacers home crowd watching their team in person for the final team this season. They'll get one last chance to watch them on TV on Sunday as the Pacers and Thunder play for an NBA championship. It will mark the 20th Game 7 in NBA history.
