The hierarchy of the top NBA point guards could have a completely different look with the return of Tyrese Haliburton from a season-long injury. For over a year, basketball fans and analysts have debated where the Pacers’ floor general truly…
Tyrese Haliburton is set to return from a season-long absence following a torn right Achilles tendon suffered during Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals. At the Indiana Pacers' media day, Haliburton announced he is 100% healthy and expects no playing restrictions, while head coach Rick Carlisle noted the team's staff would carefully manage his pace.
Anubis Sports argues that Haliburton's return can re-establish his standing among the league's elite point guards. Without their star playmaker, Indiana suffered a franchise-worst 19-63 record. Haliburton's comeback will test whether he can regain the burst and elite playmaking that previously drove Indiana's high-tempo offense.
