OKLAHOMA CITY (WNDU) - The Indiana Pacers will have to play the rest of [Game 7 of the NBA Finals](https://www.wndu.com/2025/06/22/indiana-pacers-return-oklahoma-city-tonight-winner-takes-all-game-7-nba-finals/) tonight without one of their star players.
Tyrese Haliburton has been ruled out of the game after suffering a lower leg injury just past the halfway point of the first quarter.
He immediately began punching the court in frustration, and he was seen limping significantly as he was helped to the locker room.
Prior to the injury, Haliburton had nine points, all on 3-pointers, in the winner-take-all Game 7 of the NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The injury comes after Haliburton strained his calf in Game 5 and played through it for the rest of Game 5 and in Game 6 of the series.
