Pacers Lose Tyrese Haliburton Entire 2025-26 Season Achilles Tear

News summary

Tyrese Haliburton, the Indiana Pacers' dynamic two-time All-Star point guard, suffered a torn Achilles tendon in Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals, ending his 2025-26 season before it began. Despite playing through a calf strain and knowing the risks, Haliburton insisted on competing in the decisive game, demonstrating his commitment to the team and city. Pacers president Kevin Pritchard expressed regret over Haliburton's decision to play injured but remains optimistic about his recovery, confirming the guard will miss the entire upcoming season to avoid further risk. The injury not only dashed Indiana's hopes of winning their first NBA championship but also disrupted their future plans, especially with the recent departure of star player Myles Turner. Coach Rick Carlisle and Pritchard both voiced confidence that Haliburton will return stronger after surgery and rehabilitation. The Pacers now face a challenging rebuilding phase without their star guard for the year ahead.
