Tyrese Haliburton managed just 4 points (all free throws), shooting 0-for-6 from the field, though he contributed 7 rebounds and 6 assists in 34 minutes of Game 5.

He exited in the first quarter with what was reported as right calf tightness, returning with a wrapped leg. Coach Rick Carlisle confirmed he’s “not 100%” heading into the crucial matchup.

Without his usual playmaking presence, Indiana’s offense lacked spark down the stretch, and now the Pacers are banking on his rebound in Game 6 to keep their title hopes alive.
