Where to watch NBA Finals: Live stream Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Indiana Pacers Game 6
The Thunder vs. Pacers Championship series heads to a sixth and potentially final game. We've compiled everything you need to know about where to watch the NBA Finals, including live streaming options for those without cable. It's safe to say that the 2025 NBA Finals have been an exciting, far less predictable series than last year's 4-1 Boston Celtics blowout over the Dallas Mavericks. The No. 4 Indiana Pacers have mostly held their own against the No. 1 Oklahoma City Thunder. However, a difficult Game 5 and some potential injury action from Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton have put Indiana, now down 2-3, in jeopardy of being eliminated in Game 6. The series will return to Indianapolis for tonight's game, giving the Pacers a home-court advantage, but the Thunder could very well snag the 2025 title should they win. If the Pacers pull through, it will send the series to a definitive, winner-takes-all Game 7. The NBA Finals haven't reached a tie-breaking Game 7 since 2016, so extending past tonight's match-up would be a rarity and a first for this decade. Below, you can find some of the best viewing options for the game. If you don't want to read any further: the cheapest way to live stream the NBA Finals in the US without a free trial is through a subscription to Sling TV. We've outlined everything you need to know about Sling below and highlighted a few other popular streamers that can help you tune in. Follow us on Instagram and WhatsApp to stay up to date on the latest streaming deals, guides, and reviews What channel are the NBA Finals on? Game 6 of the Thunder vs. Pacers series will air on ABC in the United States. The game is scheduled to tip off on Thursday at 8:30 p.m. ET, but viewers can tune in at 8 p.m. for pre-game NBA Countdown coverage. ABC will also host Game 7 if the 2025 NBA Finals extend past tonight. Where to watch NBA Finals in the US As we mentioned above, the absolute cheapest way for US cord-cutters to live stream the NBA Finals without a free trial is through Sling TV, since ESPN Plus won't be carrying the series. Sling costs $46 per month, but new customers can get 50% off their first month of service. That means you can watch every game of the NBA Finals (even if the series makes it to Game 7) for $23. Sling is a month-to-month cable alternative, which means that you can cancel at any time. You'll want to sign up for Sling's Orange plan, which carries ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3, TNT, and 30 other popular live channels. ESPN3 live streams NBA on ABC games, so you'll be able to watch the Finals here. This is how I personally watched the Game 5 Championship win in 2024, and I've double-checked the Sling TV guide this year to confirm that Game 6 will live stream on ESPN3. While Sling doesn't have a free trial for new customers, other live TV streaming services that offer a free trial have significantly higher monthly fees, but they also come with even more channel options. Two of the best live TV streaming services that we've tried ourselves are DirecTV and Fubo. DirecTV 's signature Entertainment plan costs $85 per month, offers access to 90+ channels, and comes with a five-day free trial for new customers. Fubo 's Pro plan starts at $85 per month, comes with at least 150 live channels, and offers a seven-day free trial for new users. Plus, new Fubo users can get $20 knocked off their first month of service. How to watch NBA Finals from anywhere NBA fans traveling outside the US can still keep up with their usual viewing methods with the help of a VPN, or virtual private network. VPNs are easy-to-use cybersecurity tools that enable people to change the virtual location of their devices. This way, they don't need to miss out on any games just because they're away from home. VPNs are popular ways to improve online security and privacy. The services we've highlighted today require US payment methods, so this option will work best for Americans who are just abroad at the moment. ExpressVPN consistently ranks among the best VPNs on the market. It's a top-rated, user-friendly option with a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can learn more about the app and its extensive cybersecurity features in our ExpressVPN review.

Challenging Coca-Cola & PepsiCo: Reliance to invest up to Rs 8,000 crore in Campa, beverages expansion over next 15 months
Challenging Coca-Cola & PepsiCo: Reliance to invest up to Rs 8,000 crore in Campa, beverages expansion over next 15 months Reliance Consumer Products (RCPL), the FMCG arm of Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Retail, is set to invest between Rs 6,000 crore and Rs 8,000 crore over the next 12–15 months to scale up its beverage portfolio, including the iconic Campa brand. The move marks RCPL's most significant capital outlay since its launch in 2022. According to a ET report, the investment will support the addition of 10–12 new greenfield and co-packing plants across India, a move aimed at challenging established players like Coca-Cola and PepsiCo, as well as low-cost regional competitors. "The capex is being done on a combined investment of Rs 6,000–8,000 crore by Reliance and some of its partners," a senior executive told the publication. RCPL's beverage portfolio includes Campa Cola, Orange and Lemon, Sosyo, Sun Crush juices, the Spinner sports drink co-created with former Sri Lankan cricketer Muttiah Muralitharan, and the fruit-based hydration brand RasKik. The company is also setting up a facility in Bihar, in addition to the plant in Guwahati built in partnership with Jericho Foods and Beverages to serve the Northeast. Spinner is priced aggressively at Rs 10 for a 250ml bottle, less than half the cost of rival drinks like Gatorade and Sting, demonstrating RCPL's strategy to undercut the market. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 유일한 공식 무료 SOC 게임! 설치도 없습니다! 경복의 바다 다운로드 Undo 'RCPL is focusing on 600 million mass consumers and is working closely with neighbourhood stores by giving them margins at today's cost,' RCPL Director T Krishnakumar had earlier told ET in an exclusive interview. So far, RCPL beverages are produced in 18 co-invested plants. While the company's distribution remains selective, Reliance plans to make its consumer products available nationally by March 2027, with about 70% coverage by March 2026 for key categories like beverages, Krishnakumar said. The broader consumer portfolio includes Sil jams and spreads, Lotus Chocolate, Toffeeman and Ravalgaon confectionery, Alan's Bugles snacks, Velvette personal care products, and the Independence staples range. Notably, most of the company's 15 brands have been acquired since its entry into FMCG in 2022. As per news agency PTI, RCPL's revenue in FY25 touched Rs 11,500 crore, making it the fastest-growing vertical within Reliance Retail. Campa and Independence brands each surpassed Rs 1,000 crore in sales, contributing to RCPL's 3.5X year-on-year growth. Reliance Retail CFO Dinesh Taluja said during an earnings call that Campa has already achieved a double-digit market share in its available regions. The company now reaches over one million retail outlets via a network of 3,200+ distributors, and has begun exploring export opportunities in select international markets. Despite a weather-affected summer, India's beverage market, estimated at Rs 67,000 crore, is projected to more than double to Rs 1.47 lakh crore by 2030, according to think tank ICRIER.

Smith had held the Head of Jazz position at the prestigious Glasgow music school since 2009. READ MORE: Orange Order walk to close more than 50 roads in Scottish city centre this weekend BBC reported that the Conservatoire had confirmed the dismissal "following a disciplinary investigation and hearing". A spokesperson also added: "RCS has robust policies in place to ensure the safety and wellbeing of students and staff." Edinburgh-born Smith has had a successful music career since the early 1980s, and was appointed as the head of the first full-time jazz course at RCS 16 years ago. He was raised in the Wester Hailes area and recorded his first solo album at the age of 16.

GMB's Susanna Reid wows in 'beautiful' high street dress now on sale for £100 less
The stylish TV presenter has once again wowed us with her wardrobe. There's no denying that we are a little envious of Susanna Reid's style. On every episode of Good Morning Britain, the 54 year-old often stuns us with her fashion choices. As luck would have it, much of the TV presenter's wardrobe can be purchased straight from the high street, such as this Green Brushwork Print Mesh Dress from Whistles that she wore yesterday, Tuesday, June 17. The latest outfit choice, which was shared by both Susanna and her stylist Debbie Harper on Instagram, was quickly met with a flood of enthusiasm from devoted fans, as one gushed: "Loved your dress this morning Susanna." Another fan of the dress wrote: "Beautiful dress." Someone else praising Susanna's dress of choice added: "Sooo beautiful!! Love the colour." Green Brushwork Print Mesh Dress £159 £59 Whistles Buy here Product Description Amidst the enthusiasm for the Whistles dress, we were pleasantly surprised to spot that it was on sale for just £59. Originally £159, it means that devoted fans can recreate the GMB host's style for a staggering £100 less. Ideal for any fancy events or weddings that are marked on the calendar, this high street retailer has said that its midi-length frock "designed to set you apart from the rest." Available in a charming green shade, that is refreshing for spring and summer, it features a bodycon style silhouette that will accentuate any curves and streamline the figure for a flattering effect. What really sets this dress apart from the rest is the "unique" brushwork print that has been designed to draw focus, so it's ideal for the fashion fans who are looking to add a statement item to their wardrobe. Complete with long sleeves and a chic crew neckline, it also features ruching along the waist that will create a "timeless silhouette." For those who are maybe not keen on the longer sleeves, then Quiz's Blue Printed Midaxi Dress that features a sleeveless design, perfect for warmer weather, has been reduced from £34.99 to £24.49.

Prefer a bandeau to prevent any tan lines across the upper body? Then New Look's £27.99 Orange Ombre Mesh Ruched Bandeau Midi Dress might be a suitable alternative worth adding to the holiday suitcase. As of writing, the Green Brushwork Print Mesh Dress is available on the Whistles website in sizes four to 20, catering to many body shapes and sizes. However, some are showing "low stock", so we'd advise bagging one fast. With its statement design, Susanna's dress is definitely one for wearing to special occasions, which is why we'd advise pairing it with some stylish heels and minimal jewellery as not to distract attention from the frock. Fashion deal of the week Fashion fans looking for a dress that will standout at all their summer events will need to hear about this one from Roman. The high street chain's Royal Blue Rose Print Button Detail Maxi Dress, hailed as "perfect for the warmer seasons", is now on sale for £35 after being dropped from £48 - saving 27 percent overall. With its "stunning" all-over rose print and modest midaxi length hemline, this particular frock will look perfect at any fancy occasions this season. Since it offers a bold design, we'd advise pairing it with nude-coloured heels and neutral accessories. The flowy, comfortable woven fabric and short sleeves make it an ideal airy choice for when the temperatures rise again. It also features a chic V-neckline, alongside a shirred waistline that will 'cinch' in the figure for a flattering effect. Complete with buttons down the front, the high street firm also advises pairing its £35 sale dress with a denim jacket on those summer days when the weather is a little bit chillier. Beloved for its vibrant and bold style, one five-star review read: "One of the five-star reviews read: "This dress is amazing. I've had so many compliments. "Lovely Silky material, floor length and such vibrant colours and so easy to just wash and wear. Suitable for weddings and occasions or just perfect for holidays and summer days. A real head turner... Love it." Someone else added: "Another pleased purchaser wrote: "Just love this dress, lovely colours, beautiful material, perfect for my upcoming holiday." Roman's Royal Blue Rose Print Button Detail Maxi Dress is just £35 in the sale now. The GMB host's dress from Whistles hasn't just received attention on Instagram, as it boasts one five-star review that reads: "This true to size eye catching dress is perfect for a lunch date or a wedding reception. Very feminine and comfortable to wear. I had lots of compliments when I wore this elegant dress." Although, someone did knock a star off after being "concerned" about the high neckline, although ultimately they found it was okay once on. However, this may pose an issue for some customers, which might be worth considering before buying. Shoppers can bag Susanna Reid's Green Brushwork Print Mesh Dress for £100 less from Whistles now.
