INDIANAPOLIS — Tyrese Haliburton is out for game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics on Saturday, according to ESPN sources.
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski posted on X that Haliburton is unlikely to play due to a left-hamstring injury. He later came back to say that the All-NBA Star will miss the game altogether.
Haliburton is out for Game 3 and will be reassessed ahead of Game 4 on Monday — but his availability for that game also remains in serious question, sources tell ESPN. Pacers will err on side of caution with their franchise star. https://t.co/cZgdtjhCG6

Haliburton left in the third quarter of a Game 2 loss at Boston with a sore left hamstring.
Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said the hamstring injury was the same one Haliburton injured during a Jan. 8 regular-season win over the Celtics. He missed 10 of the next 11 games.
Sources tell ESPN that Haliburton will be reassessed ahead of Game 4 on Monday — but his availability for that game also remains in serious question.
Boston leads the Eastern Conference Finals 2-0.
