Tyrese Haliburton Is FINALLY Back… 🥹🏀

Tyrese Haliburton was one win away from the mountaintop. After leading the Indiana Pacers on an unforgettable 2025 NBA Playoffs run through Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks, the No. 1 seed Cleveland Cavaliers, and Jalen Brunson’s New York Knicks, Haliburton brought Indiana all the way to Game 7 of the NBA Finals against Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder. But with a championship within reach, everything changed when Haliburton suffered a devastating torn right Achilles in the first quarter of Game 7. The Pacers star later opened up about how difficult it was to process coming so close to an NBA championship, saying his goal is to make it back and finally reach that mountaintop. Now, after missing the entire 2025-26 NBA season, Tyrese is ready for his comeback. In a powerful conversation with Pacers legend Reggie Miller, the two reflected on representing Indiana, competing for the right reasons, playoff heartbreak, and what it takes to return to basketball’s biggest stage. And at 2026 Pacers Media Day, Haliburton delivered the update Indiana fans have waited more than a year to hear: he’s healthy, 100%, has no restrictions, and is ready to play. From Iowa State to NBA All-Star, NBA assists leader, Team USA Olympic gold medalist, clutch playoff hero, Eastern Conference champion, and the face of the Indiana Pacers, Tyrese Haliburton’s story isn’t finished yet. The comeback starts now.
