On Friday night, the Indiana Pacers will stay on the road and take on the Oklahoma City Thunder in a rematch of last year's NBA Finals.
The Pacers are losers of three straight and four of their last five games. Oklahoma City, however, is 8-3 in 2026 and 37-8 on the season (which leads the NBA).
Friday's game will mark the second and final time these two teams will go head-to-head this season. The Pacers began the campaign against the Thunder on Oct. 23, which culminated in a 141-135 double-overtime victory for the reigning champions.
