Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton sidelined by mild hamstring strain

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton will likely be out at least two weeks because of a mild left hamstring strain.

He played in the first four games this season before missing Indiana’s home game Wednesday night against Philadelphia.

“He’ll be listed as week-to-week, so in two weeks from now if you want to ask how he’s doing that will be fine,” Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. “I don’t think it’s realistic that he will play before then.”

Haliburton missed all of last season with torn right Achilles suffered in Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals against Oklahoma City. He averaged 21.8 points and 9.5 assists in the first four games of the season.
