Sunday will be quite the sports day for the fans in Indianapolis. The Pacers will host the New York Knicks in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference finals playoff series at 8 p.m. ET. Earlier in the day, the famous Indy 500 race will be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It will make for quite the day— and fans attending the NBA game will get a cool crossover souvenir for both events.

The first two games of the Western Conference finals are in the books and the Oklahoma City Thunder have absolutely dominated in the early goings. Led by MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the NBA’s best regular-season team dispatched the Minnesota Timberwolves in Games 1 and 2 without much trouble at Paycom Center. Everything has clicked. The defense has been throttling, the ball has been hopping and the vibes are over the moon.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander starred in his first game as the official NBA MVP, scoring 38 points on Thursday night to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a Game 2 win. Before the game, he had a cool gesture for a young fan. A bit of a weird gesture. But a cool one. As he was warming up ahead of the Western Conference finals battle against the Minnesota Timberwolves Gilgeous-Alexander engaged with a group of fans for an autograph session. One young fan asked SGA to sign his forehead.

One of the primary storylines that's emerged over the course of the opening Western Conference finals games has been Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's ability to draw fouls. The 26-year-old guard, who was named league MVP earlier this week, totaled 29 free throws in Game 1 and 2. The frustration on the Minnesota side with the quick whistle has been evident and many fans have expressed their own frustrations with SGA's tendency to sell those calls.

The Minnesota Timberwolves were flustered yet again by the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 2 of the Western Conference finals, losing 118-103 to go down 2-0. There was one sign of hope, though, and it came from Anthony Edwards. The young star was stifled in Game 1 and held to only 13 shot attempts-which he himself declared unacceptable afterwards-but appeared more comfortable in Game 2. Edwards finished with 32 points on 12-for-26 shooting. In the process, he made remarkable franchise history.
