The Indiana Pacers have done it again. The underdog Pacers pulled off another stunning win, this time taking down the Oklahoma City Thunder, 111-110, in Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals on Thursday night.

This is the third consecutive round in which the Pacers have captured Game 1 on the road. In their last two series, they claimed Game 2 also, first sneaking out of Cleveland with a 120-119 win and later leaving New York after a 114-109 triumph.

Haliburton’s jumper with 0.3 seconds left gave Indiana its only lead of Game 1, but it was the one that mattered most in a 111-110 win.
