The Oklahoma City Thunder used a huge fourth quarter to come back and beat the Indiana Pacers in Game 4 of the 2025 NBA Finals on Friday night. OKC evened the series at 2-2 and outscored Indy by 14 points in the fourth quarter of a 111-104 win. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 11 points in the final three minutes as the Thunder came up clutch.
Gilgeous-Alexander was off his game for much of the night, but played like the league MVP in the fourth to lead the OKC rally.
With the series tied 2-2 and returning to OKC, the former Laker and oldest Thunder player knows he doesn’t have to be a superhero against the Indiana Pacers.
Alexander’s stoicism was as essential as his clutch shot-making in OKC’s 111-104 had-to-have-it Game 4 win at Indiana.
Indiana fed off the crowd during its Game 3 win, but players will say the advantage is more about the comfort of routines at home.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 15 of his 35 points late, capping the Oklahoma Thunder’s rally for a 111-104 win over the Indiana Pacers on Friday to tie the NBA Finals at 2-2.
