The championship will now be decided on Sunday night in Oklahoma City, where the Thunder will have home-court advantage.
It will mark the 20th Game 7 in NBA Finals history, with home teams holding a 15-4 record in such contests. However, the most recent example saw the road team prevail – when the Cleveland Cavaliers famously defeated the Golden State Warriors in the 2016 Finals.

This year’s NBA Finals will mark just the second time the championship series concludes on June 22. The only other instance came in 1994, when the Houston Rockets edged the New York Knicks in a dramatic Game 7.
Oklahoma City star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to etch his name into the record books. With 3,143 combined points from the regular season and playoffs, he is now tied with Hall of Famer Elgin Baylor’s 1962-63 campaign for the 14th-highest single-season scoring total in NBA history.
