It was a night full of emotion and history in Oklahoma City. The Thunder raised their first-ever NBA championship banner, and Steven Adams returned home — greeted with the same love and energy that made him a fan favorite for years.
The defending champs went toe-to-toe with the Houston Rockets in a thrilling double-overtime 125–124 victory, led by reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s 35 points. But beyond the scoreboard, the heart of the night belonged to Steven Adams.
