Jalen Williams Makes Unwanted NBA Finals History vs Pacers In Game 6 Loss

Wait 5 sec.

Wait… that Jalen Williams? The one Shai Gilgeous-Alexander once called “one of the biggest reasons why we are here”? Yeah, well, Game 6 just put a brutal stain on that résumé. As the Thunder untangled in a 108-91 loss to the Pacers, Williams found himself etched into the wrong kind of NBA Finals history. Not for a game-winner, not for a poster dunk, but for recording the lowest plus/minus ever in a Finals game. That’s right: minus-40 in just 27 minutes.But it’s not just the stats that are concerning here. It’s the story they are telling. Williams had 16 points, sure, but went 6-of-13 from the field, missed all four of his threes, grabbed just three rebounds, and dished one lonely assist. And the three turnovers? Each felt like a momentum killer. Indiana feasted when he was on the floor, and by the time the fourth quarter hit, the damage was historic.It’s a bummer for a player who’s been vital to OKC’s rise, and a reminder of how cruel these bright lights can be. With the series headed for a winner-take-all Game 7, all eyes now turn to how Williams and the Thunder bounce back. Because in June, redemption’s always one night away.
