Tyrese Haliburton, a star player for the Indiana Pacers, suffered a torn achilles tendon during Game 7 of the NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder, which ended in a 103-91 loss for the Pacers. His injury occurred while attempting to drive to the basket, severely hampering his team's performance in the second half. Haliburton had previously been playing with a calf strain and is expected to miss 8-10 months for recovery. He had impressive postseason stats and parallels are drawn to Kevin Durant's similar injury during the 2019 finals.
Without Tyrese Haliburton, the Pacers were outscored 56-43 in the second half, leading to their 103-91 loss in the NBA finals against the Thunder.
Haliburton, a two-time All-Star who averaged 14.0 points and 5.9 assists during the finals, suffered his torn achilles while pushing off his right foot.
