The Pacers are coming off of one of their most impressive games of the season where Tyrese Haliburton hit a game-winning shot against the Chicago Bulls over Patrick Beverley. They welcome in the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night to take on perennial MVP candidate Joel Embiid and company. The 76ers have traditionally had some major injury concerns when they play the Pacers with Embiid often missing games due to a variety of different injuries.

It is worth asking whether or not Tyrese will be playing tonight given that Tyrese looked like he got injured by Pat Beverley on a play late in the game against the Chicago Bulls.

Pat Beverley had a reckless closeout that looked like it may have taken out one of Tyrese’s ankles.

The question is, will Tyrese Haliburton be on the court and playing against the Philadelphia 76ers with the Indiana Pacers on March 6th?

There were no indications post game that Haliburton was expected to miss time and no official reports from the Pacers have indicated otherwise. So as for now, expect Haliburton back out on the court to try to follow-up his heroics act in Chicago among the home crowd in Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

Pacers Injuries

  • Aaron Nesmith is questionable with a sore left hip
  • Kendall Brown is out for the season with a right tibia stress fracture

76ers Injuries

  • Tobias Harris is questionable with left calf soreness
  • PJ Tucker is questionable with back spasms
