Pacers’ Haliburton Out at Least Two Weeks With Hamstring Strain

Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton has a mild left hamstring strain and is week-to-week, coach Rick Carlisle said Wednesday. Carlisle said the team will update his status in about two weeks, so he is expected to miss at least that long. Haliburton had played all four games this season, averaging 21.8 points and 9.5 assists, after missing all of last season with an Achilles tear from Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals.
