Game 7 was one that was supposed to be for the ages; however, things turned sideways for the Pacers as they lost their best player and star guard, Tyrese Haliburton, to an Achilles injury. ESPN's Shams Charania shared the news on Monday.

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton tore his right Achilles tendon during his team's 103–91 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 7 of the NBA Finals Sunday, according to a Monday afternoon report from Shams Charania of ESPN.

Tyrese Haliburton knew what had happened right away. Just minutes into Game 7 of the NBA Finals, the 25-year-old Indiana Pacers guard drove to the basket, stepped awkwardly on his right leg and fell to the court in agony after injuring his Achilles.
