Haliburton’s shot, which provided a stunning end to an unusually sloppy night for the Pacers, silenced an Oklahoma City crowd that had expected to see a wire-to-wire victory. Pacers center Myles Turner deflected a lob pass on the Thunder’s final possession to seal the improbable win. Haliburton finished with 14 points, 10 rebounds and six assists, while Pacers forward Pascal Siakam posted a team-high 19 points, including a clutch basket in the final minute, and 10 rebounds. “We just had to hang in,” Pacers Coach Rick Carlisle said. “The first half was rough. We were within reach. We just said, ‘Hey, keep chipping away at the rock.’ We have a lot of experience in these kinds of games. Our guys have a real good feel for what it’s all about.” -via Washington Post / June 6, 2025
