Within the first few minutes of the game, Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton went down with a non-contact injury. Things didn't look great when he went down, and many expected that he suffered an Achilles injury. Haliburton was helped off the court and didn't return to the game. And the injury to Haliburton did more than just take him out of the game.

The Indiana Pacers lost Game 7 of the NBA Finals to the Oklahoma City Thunder, and after the game, Rick Carlisle reflected on the season and Tyrese Haliburton.
