Pacers were outplayed in all four quarters, lose 132-111 to arguably the best team in the league.
SGA had 33-7-8, Dort with 22. Haliburton had a team-high 18pts.
Next: Mon. v SAC, first of three in a row at home next week. – 10:20 PM

Really good BLOB play by OKC, Jalen Williams and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander cut to the basket draws Furphy a step to the paint, Caruso darts a pass to Dort in the corner for an open 3 as Furphy is not able to recover. – 10:08 PM
Rylan Stiles @Rylan_Stiles
Again Shai Gilgeous-Alexander connects with Cason Wallace rolling to the rim. Wallace has the patients to let the defender fly by and puts it in. Wallace is such a functional talent, finding the crease in the defense. – 10:06 PM
Rylan Stiles @Rylan_Stiles
Alex Caruso gets the offensive rebound and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander nails a step-back 3 with OKC’s second chance. Thunder are up 119-97. – 10:03 PM
Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has his 47th 30 point game of the season.
A dozen more than #2 Giannis. – 9:59 PM
Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has scored 20+ points in 67 straight games. – 9:36 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
OKC making everything difficult for the Pacers on offense. They’ve moved ahead by 9pts via 10-0 burst. Dort is all over Haliburton, making everything difficult. This is where they really miss Mathurin, who’s out.
SGA is just 2/8, but scored 8 of his 12pts at the FT line. – 9:05 PM
Rylan Stiles @Rylan_Stiles
Great slip screen by Cason Wallace for an easy slam, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander with the asset as the Pacers blitz him. Wallace’s finger prints all over this second quarter. – 9:03 PM
Rylan Stiles @Rylan_Stiles
Isaiah Joe with some impactful play off the bench. Got a critical rebound to take advantage of a Caruso box out and has hit a pair of triples. He tied the game and SGA just got the lead for OKC. – 8:33 PM
Rylan Stiles @Rylan_Stiles
That was a great job by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander driving to the rim, his body positioning looked like he was about to get off the ball and instead he gets down hill and it puts the defense in a bind. – 8:29 PM
Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren surprised customers at a local Love’s Travel Stops location in NW OKC today.
SGA and Chet handed out Love’s gas cards and Thunder swag to the store guests.
They also signed autographs and took photos with each fan. pic.x.com/Ckmj3WBfcZ – 10:42 PM

More on this storyline

Dustin Dopirak: Rick Carlisle on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: “He just has an approach and an attitude about how he’s going to attack. … His game has four levels. Way outside. Normal 3, mid-range, right at the rim. He’s so efficient it’s very, very hard to slow him down.” -via Twitter @DustinDopirak / March 29, 2025
Alexander-Walker, cousin of Oklahoma City Thunder guard and MVP favorite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, is set to cash in as he enters his prime years (he turns 27 in September). A former first-round pick that has resuscitated his career in Minnesota, Alexander-Walker has shot at least 39% each of the past two seasons for the Timberwolves while providing quality defense, which is why multiple scouts and executives think he could command a contract for the full midlevel this summer (roughly four years and $60 million), be it from Minnesota or elsewhere. -via ESPN / March 28, 2025
Brandon Rahbar: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on breaking the franchise record with 61 wins: “It’s cool… My ultimate goal and the team’s ultimate goal isn’t to set the franchise record.” (SGA in a Journey tee tonight.) pic.x.com/ap7tYVYqa9 -via Twitter @BrandonRahbar / March 28, 2025
