Thunder Tie NBA Finals After Game 4 Comeback

The Oklahoma City Thunder overcame a double-digit deficit with a dramatic fourth-quarter comeback to defeat the Indiana Pacers 111-104 in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, tying the series at 2-2. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the charge, scoring 15 of his 35 points in the final five minutes. The Thunder's defensive intensity and rebounding advantage, along with key contributions from Alex Caruso, were crucial in the victory as Indiana managed only one assist in the fourth quarter. With the series returning to Oklahoma City for Game 5, the stakes are high, as historically the Game 5 winner in a tied Finals goes on to win the championship 82% of the time. Ratings for the Finals are down, attributed to small-market teams, but the series has remained highly competitive. Game 5 will be pivotal as both teams vie for the NBA title.
