The NBA Finals 2025 Game 7 is the most anticipated event of the 2025 season for all basketball fans. The series has consistently delivered a thrilling, unpredictable set of games, and heads for a dramatic Game 7 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers.

Very few people expected the Pacers, a fourth seed and the biggest Finals underdog in two decades, to push the 68-win Thunder to the brink. Yet, Indiana has repeatedly defied the odds, surviving injuries, most notably Tyrese Haliburton’s calf strain, which he played through in Game 6, and proving everyone wrong.

Game 6 saw the Pacers dominate and win the game by 108-91, forcing the Thunder to even the series with three wins each. This leads us to the 20th Game 7 in NBA history, with both franchises seeking their first championship.

The Thunder, led by MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, will now return home, where they were the NBA’s best team all season. Historically, home teams have won nearly 80% of NBA Finals Game 7s, but the Pacers’ resilience has made this series almost unpredictable.

NBA Finals 2025 Game 7 Prediction: Thunder vs Pacers

The Oklahoma City Thunder are favoured to win the NBA Finals 2025 Game 7 against the Indiana Pacers, with a significant home advantage. The Thunder have also been dominant in the regular season (68-14) and boast a strong home playoff record (10-2) that further magnifies their edge.

However, the Pacers have shown nothing but resilience as they won Game 6 decisively, when the odds were against them. They have been playing well on the road and shooting better from three-point range in Oklahoma City than at home. They also just became the first ever team to have eight players in their team to score at least 200 points in a single season playoff.

Fans can expect a close and competitive game, but given the Thunder’s defence, star power, and home crowd give they do get the slight edge to clinch their first NBA title.

Projected Outcome: Oklahoma City wins the NBA Finals 2025 Game 7.
