Another historic NBA season is in the books. And the Thunder are proudly standing on top with their first championship since relocating to OKC. Although no one can take this moment away from them, many would be left wondering – Would the outcome have been different had Tyrese Haliburton not gotten injured? Surely, this question will haunt Pacers fans for eternity. But while we will never know the answer, even Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams feel Haliburton’s misery for suffering a tragedy in the biggest game of his career.
While SGA’s sole focus for the last seven games was to decimate Tyrese and his squad, even the MVP was heartbroken to see the Pacers star go down at the biggest stage, “You just hate to see it. In sports in general, but in this moment like my heart dropped for him. I couldn’t imagine playing the biggest game of my life and something like that happening. It’s so unfortunate. It’s not fair.”
He continued, “Competition is unfair sometimes. But yeah, I just felt so bad for him and just asked if he was okay. Obviously, he wasn’t. Prayers go out to him for sure.” Even Shai’s co-star J Dub shared a similar sentiment as he wished for Haliburton’s speedy recovery, “I wanna say I hope Tyrese is okay. I haven’t like looked at my phone or anything to like see what the thing is.”
