Tyrese Haliburton gave the Indiana Pacers fans an emotional message this week with a simple Instagram post. The 25-year-old All-NBA guard is recovering from a torn Achilles and will reportedly miss the entire upcoming season.
Haliburton’s post comes after a thrilling playoff run where he led the Pacers to their first NBA Finals appearance since 2000. He hit game-winners in all four playoff series, including a buzzer-beater in Game 1 of the Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder. But in Game 7, just minutes into the first quarter, he went down with a non-contact injury that ended his season and derailed the Pacers’ title hopes.
“I miss basketball,” the star guard shared a photo of himself standing under the basket before Game 1 of the NBA Finals. The words are hard for the team and fans who watched Haliburton carry the franchise through a magical postseason. More than just numbers, his leadership and ball movement transformed the Pacers’ culture and brightened their future.
As he remains sidelined for the 2025-26 season, he must find it difficult to fill the gap. They traded the 2025 first-round pick to the New Orlando Pelicans to reacquire their 2026 pick. The team stays focused on the future and looks forward to their core piece, Haliburton’s return.

Haliburton made his presence felt at WWE SummerSlam on Sunday night, held at MetLife Stadium near Madison Square Garden. When shown on the big screen, the Pacers star was greeted with boos from the New York Knicks fans.
Haliburton smiled and responded with “I love you, too.” Later in the night, he handed one of his crutches to John Cena, who used it during the main event against Cody Rhodes.
Haliburton played a key role in eliminating the Knicks during the 2024 playoffs. Despite his injury, he remains active and connected with fans through his love for basketball and WWE.
Brittney Griner Finally Breaks Her Silence Over Alleged Caitlin Clark Comments That The WNBA Refused To Investigate

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.
The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.
The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”
However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.
It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.
Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

WNBA Chooses Not To Investigate Brittney Griner

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.
The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.
Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got aw@y with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.
This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
