Achilles tendon tear is expected to be reimbursed in the new season! Halliburton posted photos of the finals: I miss basketball

On August 7, Indiana Pacers star Haliburton suddenly updated his social media and posted a photo of the finals at the Thunder home court, and wrote: I miss basketball! In the 2024-25 season, Halliburton led the Pacers to a record of 50 wins and 32 losses, and advanced to the playoffs as fourth in the East. He eliminated the Bucks 4-1 in the first round of the playoffs, eliminated the Cavaliers 4-1 in the Eastern Conference semi-finals and eliminated the Knicks 4-2 in the Eastern Conference semi-finals. The Pacers won the Eastern Conference championship. Unfortunately, on the stage of the finals, the Pacers lost to the Thunder 3-4 in the total score and ultimately missed the championship.

In the key game of the tiebreak championship, Halliburton was injured in the first quarter and suffered a severe injury from a torn Achilles tendon; Halliburton is currently recovering, but he will miss the entire 2025-26 season. Previously, the Pacers' basketball operations president Kevin Prichard publicly stated: I have no doubt that he will be better than he is now after returning, but he will not play next season, and we will not take this risk now.

Halliburton is currently recovering from an injury. During this period, he successfully proposed to his girlfriend in protective boots. Last season, Halliburton played 73 regular season games, averaging 18.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, 9.2 assists per game, and played in 23 playoff games, averaging 17.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 8.6 assists per game. It was too crazy to win the championship three times. Unfortunately, he retired from the finals with serious injury and seriously injured in the finals.

In any case, I hope that 25-year-old Halliburton will recover as soon as possible and return to the field as soon as possible.
