Released on injury against the Knicks, Tyrese Haliburton had to undergo examinations this Thursday to determine the nature of his knee sore and the duration of his absence. Suffice to say that we were all impatiently awaiting the Woj notification today. She just fell.
Two weeks of absence before reassessment.
This is the main information to remember this Thursday evening. Adrian WojnarowskiESPN has just announced that Tyrese Haliburton is not only suffering from a bruised knee – he who left Madison Square Garden on crutches yesterday – but also from a sprained elbow. Other medical results should still fall soon, the maestro of Indiana having in particular passed an MRI during the afternoon.
Pacers say that Tyrese Haliburton sprained his left elbow and absorbed a mild left knee bruise and will be reevaluated in two weeks. Team is also awaiting additional opinion on the results of the scans.

In view of this first info, we still have the impression that Tyrese Haliburton is not doing too badly despite the various glitches of which he is the victim. But it’s still a blow for both him and the Pacers.
Indiana remains on 8 wins in 11 games, a magnificent dynamic instilled in particular by Hali’s All-Star caliber season and which today allows Indiana (overall record of 23 wins – 19 losses) to squat seventh place in the Conference. East. Nobody, absolutely nobody, imagined the Pacers as high in the hierarchy, them that everyone saw in the bottom of the rankings. The question we now ask ourselves is: can the Indiana team hold on without its conductor? It seems tense even if the collective is solid and players like Myles Turner, rookie Ben Mathurin, Buddy Hield and a few others manage to hold their own.
Indiana’s schedule for the rest of January, here it is: Atlanta, Memphis, @ Milwaukee, @ Oklahoma City, @ Denver, @ Phoenix, Chicago, @ Orlando, Milwaukee, @ Memphis.
Not obvious at all…
