Haliburton, the Indiana guard who expected to be fined for his dancing celebration after Game 2 of the Pacers’ win at Cleveland in the Eastern Conference semifinals on Tuesday night, received only a warning from the league office instead, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.

Tyrese Haliburton rebounded his own free throw, then sank a 3-pointer to complete an absurd comeback in Cleveland, which gives the Pacers a 2-0 series lead heading back to Indy.
Now…going live shortly.

Cavs upped the intensity + it made the Pacers uncomfortable early, leading to 13 TOs. Once up 20, Cavs’ lead is 61-50 at the break.
Haliburton remained in the game, but got left wrist area taped. Myles Turner (15pts) has been huge, helping keep them in it. Mitchell has 21. – 8:11 PM

More on this storyline
Since he played the role of hero, Haliburton said he had gotten multiple congratulatory messages. The sharpshooter said he had gotten texts from “(Justin) Timberlake, Floyd (Mayweather) and Steph (Curry)” after his late-game heroics. “I’ve been able to develop some pretty cool relationships,” Haliburton said. “I got some pretty cool texts. But there’s a cool video of my dog running around the house after I hit the shot. That’s the coolest one.” -via Clutch Points / May 8, 2025
Cavaliers coach Kenny Atkinson refused to blame officials for what the NBA said were three incorrect non-calls in the final minute — including one that led to Tyrese Haliburton’s winning 3-pointer — in Indiana’s 120-119 victory over Cleveland in Game 2 of an Eastern Conference semifinals series Tuesday night. -via ESPN / May 8, 2025
Tony East: Tyrese Haliburton not on the Game 3 injury report after his wrist was sore during/after Game 2. Evan Mobley, De’Andre Hunter, and Darius Garland all questionable. -via Bluesky / May 8, 2025
