Jalen Williams keeps bouncing back. The Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star has suffered through poor shooting stretches in each of the past three playoff series. And each time, he’s recovered to help the Thunder win critical games.

The ratings are down for these NBA Finals, as was expected. Oklahoma City vs. Indiana is a small-market series and the numbers reflect that, with viewership down about 20% from last season and on pace for the poorest TV turnout since the pandemic “bubble” finals in 2020.

In a stunning Game 1 of the NBA Finals, the Indiana Pacers delivered a comeback for the ages, erasing a 15-point fourth-quarter deficit to shock the Oklahoma City Thunder on their home floor. Despite entering the night as heavy 9.5-point underdogs, the Pacers proved they’re never out of a game.
