Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton sustained a torn right Achilles tendon in Game 7 of the NBA Finals against Oklahoma City, sources told ESPN on Monday.
Haliburton, who played through a calf strain in the NBA Finals for opportunity to win a championship, is evaluating surgical options, sources told ESPN.
The seriousness of the injury was apparent from the moment the Pacers' star guard -- who had been playing through a strained right calf -- crumpled to the floor without contact as he was attempting to drive to the basket with 4:55 remaining in the opening quarter.
