Some of the league’s best young talent will be on display during the 2025 NBA Finals, with the Thunder battling the Pacers.
Oklahoma City ripped through the Western Conference playoffs on the heels of a historic regular season, buoyed by MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. After averaging a league-best 32.7 points per game in the regular season, SGA is averaging 29.8 points per game in a stalwart postseason.
Gilgeous-Alexander is surrounded by a core nucleus that includes co-star Jalen Williams and defensive-minded Chet Holmgren, a pair of former first-round picks blossoming into legitimate stars. They’ll look to guide OKC to the franchise’s first championship since 1979, back when they were the Seattle SuperSonics.
Tyrese Haliburton fuels the white-hot Pacers into the NBA Finals, after Indiana fell a few wins shy of a Finals appearance in 2024. Haliburton’s dramatic postseason has seen him average 18.8 points and 9.8 assists per game.
Veteran Pascal Siakam, an NBA champion with the Raptors, and Aaron Nesmith complement Haliburton with reliable scoring and pesky defense. Indiana is in search of the first NBA championship in franchise history in its first Finals appearance since 2000.
