Tyrese Haliburton to Be a Game-Time Call Thursday
Indiana Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton (calf) is expected to be a game-time decision for Thursday's Game 6 of the NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder. "He is going to be carefully evaluated over the next 36 hours and will likely be listed as questionable on the injury report and probably will be a game-time decision for Game 6," Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle told Indianapolis radio station 107.5 The Fan on Wednesday morning. On Tuesday, it was reported that Haliburton is set to undergo an MRI to determine the severity of a right calf strain. Indiana's star guard struggled in Game 5 but has had a decent series overall, averaging 15.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, 7.2 assists, and 1.2 steals. If he is unavailable on Thursday, the Pacers must rely more on veteran playmaker T.J. McConnell, who is coming off a solid Game 5 effort. In 22 minutes, he amassed 18 points, four rebounds, four assists, and two steals.
