After taking a 2-1 lead initially the Thunder, led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams, have retaken the lead and they could win their first championship ever after shifting from Seattle to Oklahoma. Meanwhile, the Pacers, have not been able to put on the same kind of show that they did earlier in the playoffs, and the biggest reason to it is likely because of Tyrese Haliburton&rsquo;s injury, which has limited him from playing at his best.<\/p><p>While the world debates about his star\/superstar or just a really good player status in the NBA, Haliburton has proven in this playoffs that the he is on the come up. Knocking down multiple game tying or go-ahead baskets, Haliburton is one of the biggest reasons why the Pacers are even in the NBA Finals to begin with. While their best scorer is arguably Pascal Siakam, Hali&rsquo;s job has been to do a little of everything which includes, setting up his teammates as his No.1 priority, and then comes scoring, playing like a pure point guard. However, his calf strain, which has been bothering him since Game 2 of the NBA Finals, has only gotten worse as the series has gone along. It was evident that Haliburton wasn&rsquo;t a 100% in Game 5, limping away on the court at times. <\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Tyrese Haliburton is ACTIVE tonight for Game 6 of the Finals and does not have a minutes restriction &#128293; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/aZKx7SPUTG\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/aZKx7SPUTG<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BleacherReport\/status\/1935832748045775071?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 19, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>With Haliburton&rsquo;s injury, the Pacers&rsquo; chance to win the title has diminished significantly, and we are here to answer if he&rsquo;ll play tonight in a do-or-die Game 6 of the NBA Finals.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tyrese Haliburton&rsquo;s Game 6 Status <\/h2><p>Luckily for the Pacers, Tyrese Haliburton is going to play tonight as the Indiana Pacers face elimination in Game 6 of the NBA Finals.

The Pacers are nearly impossible to beat when Haliburton scores at least 20 points or more, and the team will need Hali&rsquo;s scoring to go along with his playmaking to force a Game 7.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Indiana Pacers are currently on the brink of elimination after losing back-to-back games in the last two NBA Finals matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
