Tyrese Haliburton scored with 0.3 left for Indiana's first and only lead of the game and the Pacers beat the Thunder 111-110 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver said he believes there is enough interest among league owners to begin "a more formal exploratory phase" of expansion.

St. John's coach Rick Pitino, who previously led the Knicks from 1987-89, says he's "absolutely not" interested in coaching the team again in the wake of Tom Thibodeau's firing.
