### Oklahoma City Thunder to Face Indiana Pacers in 2025 NBA Finals

The much-anticipated 2025 NBA Finals will begin this Thursday, June 5, featuring a thrilling face-off between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers. This marks the first time the Thunder have reached the Finals in 13 years, led impressively by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Meanwhile, the Pacers, directed by Tyrese Haliburton, earned their spot by overcoming the New York Knicks in six games during the Eastern Conference finals.

Oklahoma City will enjoy home-court advantage throughout the series, thanks to their stellar regular-season performance where they secured an NBA-best 68 wins and topped the Western Conference. The Pacers are making their first NBA Finals appearance since 2000, whereas the Thunder last competed for the title in 2012.

Neither team has secured an NBA championship in the modern era. The Pacers are still seeking their first NBA title, despite having captured three ABA championships in the 1970s. As for the Thunder, while the franchise claimed a championship as the Seattle SuperSonics in 1979, they have yet to win the Larry O'Brien Trophy since relocating to Oklahoma City in 2008.
