The Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder will compete in Game 7 of the NBA Finals to declare a champion.
With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder hosting the game, it will provide an opportunity for the franchise to make history in front of its home crowd.
It would be the first NBA title for the franchise since the 1979 season, when it won as the Seattle SuperSonics. The Thunder have only one other Finals appearance, in 2012, since relocating in 2008.
Tyrese Haliburton and the Pacers avoided elimination on Thursday and now have a chance to win their first NBA championship. The Pacers had championship success in the 1970s while playing in the American Basketball Association (ABA), winning that league’s title in 1970, 1972 and 1973. But they’re still searching for their first NBA crown since joining the league in 1976.
