The Oklahoma City Thunder have been crowned NBA champions after finally seeing off the Indiana Pacers in Game 7 on Sunday night.
Led by MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Thunder secured the franchise’s second-ever championship with a 103-91 win on their own court to wrap up a 4-3 series success.
The Pacers were stunned by the loss of their star player Tyrese Haliburton at the end of the first quarter. He suffered an Achilles injury and left the court in tears.
A spirited Pacers team did their best to compete without their main man, powered by a sensational performance from T.J. McConnell, but it was not enough to deny the Thunder.
