Oklahoma City Thunder, Indiana Pacers' NBA Finals uniforms revealed: Who's wearing what?
The Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers are all geared up for a fierce round of games in the NBA Finals on Thursday (June 5). As fans of both teams line up to support their stars, the question still remains of what colors they should don while doing so. This is the Thunder's first finals since the LeBron James-led Miami Heat game in 2012. For the Pacers, this moment has been 25 years in the waiting.
The NBA has released the official uniform schedule for the first four games, and here's a full record of how each team's finals jersey has fared for them in the past.
The Pacers will be sticking to their statement gold threads for this match. The Statement Edition jersey first entered their uniform rotation when the team joined the NBA from the ABA in 1976. This trustworthy piece of clothing has helped the team set a 14-14 regular season record and an 8-3 postseason record.
Their last final appearance featured pinstripe uniforms with hues of blue, white, and gold.

Games 2 through 4 will see the Thunder wearing their blue-colored Icon Edition jersey.
