June 8 (UPI) -- Shai Gilgeous-Alexander exercised beautiful balance and poise, pouring in 34 points, while the Oklahoma City Thunder thwarted the Indiana Pacers' hot shooters in a 123-107 thrashing Sunday in Game 2 of the NBA Finals.
Gilgeous-Alexander made 11 of 21 shots and chipped in eight assists, five rebounds and four steals in the series-tying win in Oklahoma City.
With his 34 points, the NBA MVP tied Wilt Chamberlain's NBA record for the most-consecutive home playoff games (nine) with at least 30 points. The Thunder guard scored 19 in the second half.
"We used the opportunity to get better," Gilgeous-Alexander said on the ABC broadcast, when asked about the Thunder's response to a Game 1 loss.
