The Thunder's efficiency proved decisive—they shot 57.8 percent from the field and made 13 three-pointers, while holding the Clippers to 46.5 percent shooting despite Los Angeles connecting on 14 threes.

The game stayed competitive through the opening half, with the teams combining for 69 points in the first two quarters, but OKC's third-quarter collapse—scoring just 25 points—was offset by a dominant 34-point fourth quarter that sealed the outcome.

Oklahoma City's offensive rating of 127.3 far exceeded the Vegas total of 223.5, reflecting their efficiency advantage and control.
