Haliburton, 25, led the Pacers to the NBA Finals this past season, though he tore his Achilles in Game 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder and will miss the entire 2025-26 campaign. He was one of several star players to suffer that injury in recent months, with Jayson Tatum and Damian Lillard among them.

Tyrese Haliburton announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Jade Jones on Monday, July 28. The Indiana Pacers star popped the question to his college sweetheart at a sentimental location.

The proposal went down at Iowa State University, where Tyrese Haliburton — an Oshkosh North standout — played college ball and Jade Jones was a cheerleader.
