If the Thunder even the series 1-1, Williams will likely play a big part. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Lu Dort did enough to secure a Game 1 win, but the rest of the starters struggled. For the 24-year-old, that was 17 points on 6-of-19 shooting.

The Thunder will look to rebound in Game 2 of the Finals against the Pacers, now down by one in the series heading into Sunday. Another 2025 NBA playoff game, another go-ahead tie or game-winner by Tyrese “The Moment” Haliburton.

The Pacers stole Game 1 with a furious comeback, but going into Sunday’s clash the Thunder are 17-2 with a 17.5-point winning margin after losses this season.
