The Oklahoma City Thunder are facing elimination against the Indiana Pacers in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. After a solid performance in Game 5, where the Thunder's team effort, featuring four players scoring in double figures, led to a 120-109 win, they are now down 3-2 in the series. The Pacers have been strong at home, winning 15 of their last 20 games at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, making this matchup crucial for both teams.

Tyrese Haliburton’s calf strain makes him a game-time decision, adding to the tension.
