Pacers Take Game 4 & A Dominating 3–1 Lead While Thunder Advance to NBA Finals

Pacers Seize Control with Game 4 Victory

The Indiana Pacers delivered a commanding performance in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals, defeating the New York Knicks 130–121 to take a 3–1 series lead. Tyrese Haliburton led the Pacers putting up a triple-double with 32 points, 15 assists, and 12 rebounds, while Pascal Siakam added 30 points of his own.

Jalen Brunson led the Knicks with 31 points, while teammates Karl-Anthony Towns and OG Anunoby put in 24 and 22 points respectfully. But their efforts again were not enough to overcome Indiana's offensive onslaught. 

The series now shifts back to Madison Square Garden for Game 5, where the Knicks face elimination tomorrow.

Thunder Clinch the West, Headed to the NBA Finals

The Oklahoma City Thunder are headed to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2012. In front of a raucous home crowd tonight, the Thunder defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 124–94 in a game that was never really close, closing out the Western Conference Finals 4–1.

Reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander once again led the charge with 34 points, 7 rebounds, and 8 assists, while Chet Holmgren delivered another strong performance adding 22 points.

Despite a 24-point effort from Julius Randle and 19 from Anthony Edwards, the Timberwolves couldn’t claw their way back into the game after falling dismally behind early. So bad in fact that they only scored 3 field goals in the first quarter for a total of 9 points.

This victory caps off a dominant run through the Western Conference for OKC, who now await the winner of the Knicks-Pacers series. With a young core that’s playing fearless basketball, the Thunder are officially back in the NBA's spotlight.
