REDEMPTION: Pacers Deliver Their Best Performance of the Season in OKC
The Pacers walk back into Oklahoma City and do the most Pacers thing possible — they beat the NBA’s best team and exorcise some serious demons. Indiana avenges last year’s Game 7 heartbreak with a cathartic win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, delivering one of the most fun nights of an otherwise frustrating season. A career night from Jarace Walker, elite defense from Johnny Furphy in the starting lineup, and a near triple-double on hyper-efficient shooting from Andrew Nembhard powered the win. The Pacers did it shorthanded, too — without Tyrese Haliburton in the building, as he shared with Taylor Rooks that it was still too soon to return following his Game 7 Achilles injury. He made it clear though: the next time he’s in OKC, he plans to be in uniform. A night of redemption, release, and a reminder of what this group is capable of when it all clicks.
