The NBA Finals are set: It'll be Thunder vs. Pacers, starting Thursday night

The seeds for the 2025 NBA Finals began getting planted unknowingly in 2017, back when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was about to enroll at Kentucky and Tyrese Haliburton was getting ready for his senior year of high school in Wisconsin.

The Pacers would trade Sabonis in 2022 to Sacramento for a package that included Hali

French Open: Carlos Alcaraz shows sportsmanship by conceding a point in win over Ben Shelton

Initially, the second-seeded Alcaraz was awarded the point. But he
