Haliburton — who had nine early points — received a pass on the wing and proceeded to dribble toward the basket with his left hand. However, he immediately fell to the floor and turned the ball over, smacking the hardwood. Haliburton then had to be helped off the court, and the Pacers officially ruled him out in the second quarter because of a “right lower leg injury.”
The two-time NBA All-Star sustained a right calf strain in Game 5 but played 23 minutes in a blowout Game 6 victory. He received a wide range of treatment to get ready to play in Game 6, expressing that there was little doubt in his mind that he would play.
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James led reactions from around the sports world, posting “F—!!!!!!!!” on X, as others sent their best wishes for Haliburton.
No way man….
