Tyrese Haliburton reportedly suffered Grade 1 hamstring strain in Pacers win over Celtics
The Pacers rallied after losing All-Star point guard Tyrese Haliburton to a hamstring injury to beat the Boston Celtics 133-131.JANUARY 9
Diagnosed with Grade 1 strain Haliburton was diagnosed with a Grade 1 left hamstring strain Tuesday and will be re-evaluated in approximately two weeks, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Haliburton suffered the injury during Monday's 133-131 win to the Celtics and was replaced by Andrew Nembhard to start the second half. However, the latter struggled with foul trouble during the contest, allowing T.J. McConnell to see increased playing time and usage. Per Wojnarowski, there's relief inside the Pacers' organization that Haliburton avoided a serious injury, but the All-Star point guard will still miss at least a handful of games. Nembhard and McConnell are obvious candidates to pick up the slack in Haliburton's absence, but Bruce Brown, Bennedict Mathurin and Buddy Hield could also see their respective roles grow over the next two weeks.

Will undergo MRI Tuesday Haliburton will undergo an MRI on his strained left hamstring Tuesday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
Impact Haliburton left Monday's game versus Boston early after slipping on the court and wasn't able to return. He needed help off the court from his teammates, and he was in obvious pain. Coach Rick Carlisle said after the game that he hopes it's not serious, but he didn't get into any specifics. More clarity can be expected after the MRI on Tuesday, and in the meantime, fantasy managers can expect Andrew Nembhard and T.J. McConnell to see a spike in fantasy value if Haliburton misses time.
