OKC Thunder vs Indiana Pacers Live Tonight: Start Time, TV Channel, Streaming Link, Odds & Real-Time Score Updates

The Oklahoma City Thunder bounced back from a heartbreaking Game 1 loss by throttling the Indiana Pacers 123-107 on Sunday night, knotting the 2025 NBA Finals at 1-1 and setting up a pivotal Game 3 in Indianapolis on Wednesday, June 11 at 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC and fuboTV. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander erupted for 34 points, crossing the 3,000-point mark for the season and overtaking Jalen Brunson as the postseason’s top scorer, while spark-plug Alex Caruso poured in 20 off the bench to ignite a 19-2 second-quarter blitz that ballooned OKC’s lead to 23. Indiana never reduced the gap to single digits, undone by a clunky 6-for-26 night from deep and another quiet outing from All-NBA guard Tyrese Haliburton (17 pts). KEY STORYLINES AHEAD OF GAME 3 • Road reversal: The Pacers are 20-20 away from Gainbridge Fieldhouse, but they’ve won six straight home playoff games; OKC owned the league’s best road differential (+7.3). • Tactical tweak watch: Thunder coach Mark Daigneault’s small-ball closing lineups smothered Indiana’s pace; Rick Carlisle hinted at “more physicality” and possible minutes for bruiser Isaiah Hartenstein. • Star duel: Gilgeous-Alexander (31.7 ppg) vs. Haliburton (24.4 ppg) now shifts to a hostile Indiana crowd that hasn’t hosted a Finals game since 2000. • Health check: Both teams list clean injury reports, but watch Pacers wing Bennedict Mathurin, who aggravated a left wrist sprain late in Game 2 but is expected to play.
