Tyrese Haliburton expressed signs of frustration while he was down on the court with 5:02 left in the first quarter. He went down after catching a pass from Obi Toppin and attempting to make a move with the ball past Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

The Pacers' star suffered a right calf injury in Game 5 and was questionable for Game 6 but managed to play in the game. He was deemed healthy enough to play in Game 7.

Haliburton was seen being embraced by teammates on the court before he was helped back to the locker room with a towel over his head. He will not return to the game after the Pacers officially ruled him out.

Haliburton’s father, John Haliburton, told ESPN reporter Lisa Salters that it was an Achilles injury that would keep him out of the rest of Game 7.

The Pacers lead the Thunder 48-47 at halftime. Haliburton had nine points in seven minutes of play in the first quarter.
