Indiana Pacers superstar point guard Tyrese Haliburton suffered a torn right Achilles tendon after going to the floor in pain during the first quarter of Sunday night's Game 7 and not returning, the team confirmed Monday. The Achilles tear was first reported by ESPN's Shams Charania.

Haliburton entered Game 7 playing through a right calf strain injury that was suffered earlier in the NBA Finals. The Thunder are undoubtedly happy to be champions, but no one is thrilled about the how they got there in the closing game of the series. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 23, 2025, where it first appeared.
