Thunder coach Mark Daigneault and his team have watched the Pacers come from behind and pull off miraculous playoff wins during Indiana's run through the Eastern Conference. Now, Daigneault's Thunder have to deal with the cardiac Pacers themselves.

Daigneault was born on Feb. 23, 1985. He is 40, making him the third-youngest coach in the NBA. Daigneault took over for Donovan, who had been the Thunder's head coach since 2016. After the 2020 season, he and the Thunder couldn't agree on a new contract, so the two sides parted ways, with Donovan landing in Chicago and OKC going with Daigneault.
