How to Watch Tonight's NBA Finals Indiana Pacers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder Game 1 for Free

The 2025 NBA finals kick off tonight. The Oklahoma City Thunder will play the Indiana Pacers, and the team that wins four out of seven games first will claim the championship title. It's a big moment for both teams. Tonight marks the first time the Pacers have made it to the finals in 25 years since losing to the Los Angeles Lakers. The last time the Thunder had a chance at the championship was in 2012 against the Miami Heat -- who had big names on the roster, including Lebron James, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh. Even though both the Pacers and Thunder lost at their last finals shot, tonight kicks off their chance to take the title. Thinking about where and how you'll watch the game for free?

Free VPNs also come with other downsides including less than ideal speed and no control of your privacy or data being shared.

Diamondbacks ace Corbin Burnes leaves game against Nationals with elbow discomfort

Tim Kurkjian joins the Dan Le Batard Show to discuss the analytics that shape the MLB in 2025, breaking down how baseball has changed and evolved throughout the years. PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona Diamondbacks ace Corbin Burnes was lifted after just 70 pitches Sunday against the Washington Nationals with right elbow discomfort. Manager Torey Lovullo told reporters after Arizona's 3-1 win that Burnes will have an MRI on Monday. Arizona led 3-0 in the top of the fifth inning when Burnes allowed a single by CJ Abrams with two outs. The right-hander then gestured toward the dugout with his glove and yelled in frustration. Jalen Beeks replaced Burnes and gave up an RBI single before getting the third out. Burnes allowed a run and four hits in 4 2/3 innings, with a walk and six strikeouts. He is 3-2 with a 2.66 ERA in 11 starts this season. Arizona signed Burnes to a $210 million, six-year contract before the season. He's been effective, but the Diamondbacks have dealt with a slew of pitching injuries. Jordan Montgomery (Tommy John surgery) is out for the season, Eduardo Rodríguez (shoulder) is on the injured list and reliever A.J. Puk (elbow) is on the IL as well. Arizona allowed 10 runs in the first inning Saturday, its ninth loss in 10 games. Durability hasn't been much of a concern for the 30-year-old Burnes, who has made at least 28 starts in every season since he won the 2021 National League Cy Young Award for Milwaukee. He spent his first six years with the Brewers before being traded to Baltimore before the 2024 season. After one year with the Orioles, he signed with the Diamondbacks as a free agent.
