Shai Gilgeous-Alexander explains how he plans to deal with the Pacers' defense being focused on him during the rest of their NBA Finals series.

Pacers Breakout NBA Finals Star 'Expected' to Be Trade Target originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

He has been the same great story and terrific bench player in the NBA Finals that he was here. Too bad the Sixers let him walk away.

The Pacers started the season 10-15, but now they're two wins away from their first NBA championship. They've earned our respect.

The Indiana Pacers are just two wins away from winning an NBA title. Myles Turner is one of the big reasons why they are in the NBA Finals in the first place. Turner is someone who has had his name in trade rumors for each of the last few years.

McConnell’s third inbounds steal followed an Andrew Nembhard jumper that brought Indiana within two early in the fourth. McConnell jumped in front of Caruso, who was inbounding the ball, and came up with the steal; his layup tied the game at 95 with 8:33 left.

Game 3 revealed what the Pacers look like at their best. Dogged. Determined. And dominant when it matters most.

In Game 3, Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark was in attendance. She has attended eight games throughout the playoffs and her presence has made a shocking impact. During the eight games that she has appeared at Indiana home games, the Pacers have gone 8-0 in the postseason. She's apparently their good luck charm.
