Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton missed this NBA season after tearing his Achilles during last year’s NBA Finals, and he’s recently dealt with face shingles on top of his Achilles recovery. It’s been an unfortunate year for Haliburton, to say the least.
Haliburton spoke to media on Monday to provide updates on his shingles, eight weeks into the virus. Shingles is a rash caused by the same virus as chickenpox, with Haliburton’s rash appearing on his face. The rash has since disappeared, but the itching and swelling of his eyes and face hasn’t gone away. He lost part of his eyebrow because of shingles. At one point, Haliburton shared that his eye was essentially closed shut because of how swollen it got.
