In a commanding display of athleticism and strategic acumen, the Oklahoma City Thunder eviscerated the Indiana Pacers with a decisive 123-107 victory in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, thereby restoring parity to the series at one game apiece.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander spearheaded the Thunder's offensive barrage with a commanding 34 points, while Alex Caruso, emerging from the bench, furnished a valuable 20-point contribution, culminating in a victory that heralded the team's first triumph in a championship series since 2012.

Despite the Pacers' initial victory, their performance in Game 2 amounted to a negligible challenge, notwithstanding a fleeting resurgence in the third quarter; remarkably, they are the first team since the 2013 Miami Heat to navigate the first two games of the Finals without a single player breaching the 20-point threshold in either contest.

在本次季后赛征程中，谢伊·吉尔杰斯-亚历山大书写了个人史诗，荣膺总得分王的桂冠。系列赛第三战即将移师印第安纳波利斯，这座城市也由此迎来了阔别四分之一个世纪之久的总决赛级别赛事，堪称意义非凡。
