Indiana Pacers star guard Tyrese Haliburton is facing uncertainty after suffering a hamstring injury during Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics on Thursday night. Haliburton exited the game with 3:44 remaining in the third quarter and did not return. This is the same hamstring he injured in January, and the severity of the injury is currently unknown. Haliburton also underwent X-rays on his chest at halftime. Pacers Coach Rick Carlisle confirmed that Haliburton will miss Game 3 and his status for Game 4 remains undetermined. The Pacers, who are without their key player, managed to hold a double-digit lead over the Celtics in Game 3. Haliburton's absence is a significant blow to the Pacers' championship hopes.
