Thunder tie up NBA Finals with Pacers on back of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's brilliant Game 4

INDIANAPOLIS — Game on the line, season quite possibly on the line, the Oklahoma City Thunder had only one place to turn. They went to the MVP. And Shai Gilgeous-Alexander delivered, scoring 15 of his 35 points in the final 4:38, capping Oklahoma City's rally from a 10-point, second-half deficit and sealing a 111-104 win over the Indiana Pacers 111-104 on Friday night to tie the NBA Finals at two games apiece. Advertisement 'He definitely showed who he is tonight,' Thunder coach Mark Daigneault said. It was all SGA for OKC down the stretch. The Thunder closed the game on a 16-7 run; he had all but one of those points. 'We played with desperation to end the game,' Gilgeous-Alexander said, 'and that's why we won.' Jalen Williams added 27, Alex Caruso had 20 and Chet Holmgren finished with 14 points and 15 rebounds for the Thunder. They did it the hard way — with a season-low three 3-pointers, and no assists from Gilgeous-Alexander for the first time all season. Pascal Siakam scored 20 for Indiana, which got 18 from Tyrese Haliburton and 17 from Obi Toppin. Advertisement Game 5 of the series — now essentially a best-of-three — is at Oklahoma City on Monday night, with the Thunder now having reclaimed home-court advantage. 'This kind of a challenge is going to have extreme highs and extreme lows,' Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. 'This is a low right now and we're going to have to bounce back from it.' The Thunder basically saved their realistic chance at winning the title.

NBAE via Getty Images Teams with a 3-1 series lead in the NBA Finals have gone on to win the championship 37 times in 38 past chances. The Pacers looked well on their way to being the 39th team with such an edge, before Gilgeous-Alexander saved the day. Advertisement 'We knew it when we woke up this morning; 3-1 is a lot different than 2-2 going back home,' Gilgeous-Alexander said. The Pacers came out flying, scoring 20 points in the first 4:59 — only the second time all season the Thunder gave up so many so quickly.

AP They led by as many as nine early, but were unable to pull away. And things got chippy for the first time in the series: Toppin was called for a Flagrant 1 on Caruso midway through the second quarter, then Toppin was the recipient of a Flagrant 1 from Lu Dort just before the half. The Pacers closed on a 15-6 run, taking a 60-57 lead into the break. Advertisement Toppin's baseline dunk late in the third put Indiana up 86-76, its first double-digit lead of the series coming late in the 15th quarter of the series. Back came OKC: A 13-3 run tied the game early in the fourth at 89, the first of a handful of those down the stretch. Tied at 91. Tied at 95. Tied at 97. And, finally, the lead: Gilgeous-Alexander's step-back with 2:23 left put the Thunder up 104-103, their first lead of the second half. They kept it the rest of the way. 'We wanted to win,' Siakam said. 'I thought we played well enough for some stretches … but unfortunately, it didn't happen.'

How Jaylin Williams helped Thunder win Game 4 against Pacers despite DNP

How Jaylin Williams helped Thunder win Game 4 against Pacers despite DNP On the road, it was a group of a couple of dozen folks against thousands at the arena and millions outside of it. The Oklahoma City Thunder spent nearly a week on the road and successfully left with a two-game split against the Indiana Pacers to even the 2025 NBA Finals at 2-2. The Thunder fought through a high-stakes environment. After they fell behind by 10 points in the third quarter, everybody within OKC started to slowly come around the possible reality of a daunting 3-1 series hole that puts them on the cusp of being on the wrong side of an all-time upset. But the Thunder shrug their shoulders and moved onto the next play. They canceled out the loud Indiana crowd where they made a 10-point lead feel like 20. While OKC fans could overreact in the moment, the players aren't afforded the same luxury. Several parallels have been made to the Thunder's Round 2 series against the Denver Nuggets. They were also down 2-1 before they gutted out a critical Game 4 win. Let's just say history repeated itself again. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander carried OKC across the finish line with 15 fourth-quarter points in a 111-104 Game 4 win. Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault discussed their composure despite being thrown into the fire. He pointed out player who didn't even check into the game that did an amazing job of keeping the vibes high despite being the villain of an entire fanbase. And arguably, 28 other fanbases considering some of the social media reactions. "I'm always impressed by our team. Great poise, great confidence, great connection. The communication on the bench I thought was outstanding. Most of the guys that weren't playing I thought J-Will had an unbelievable voice tonight in a lot of those huddles," Daigneault said. "When you're on the road like that, it's just you. That's your unit. Those guys did a great job staying in it because that was a hard game, a hard game for us. We could just not get a lot going, especially the third. Just to hang in there, just kind of showed who we are. I didn't think it was anything different from what we've been, but we definitely showed who we were in that situation." Jaylin Williams has always been a locker room and fan favorite. He's had his moments in the playoffs, but has mostly stayed on the bench. Still, if he's your third-string center, that means you got one of the deepest rosters in the league. Even then, he's found a way to impact the game in an intangible way.
