Tyrese Haliburton tears Achilles in Game 7 of the NBA Finals
Unspeakable pain for the Indiana Pacers star, who left the court in the first quarter with the game still tied
Tyrese Haliburton had to leave Game 7 of the NBA Finals in the first quarter with what appears to be an Achilles tendon rupture, the same injury that Damian Lillard and Jayson Tatum suffered in these playoffs.
The Indiana Pacers star injured himself alone on a drive to the basket. He fell to the ground in severe pain with five minutes left in the first quarter. It is known that he had been dealing with a hamstring strain since the fifth game of the series, although he had been instrumental in the victory against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the sixth game and had started the Finals very well with nine points and 3 of 4 from behind the arc.
A huge blow for the player and for an NBA that needs to start worrying about the health of its stars before these types of injuries spiral out of control.
