Haliburton has faced significant injury issues during the NBA Finals series, scoring only 4 points in Game 5. However, he bounced back in Game 6 with 14 points and 5 assists, leading the team to extend the series to Game 7.

He emphasized that although his right calf feels a bit sore and stiff, he is ready to play in Game 7.

The last time the NBA Finals reached Game 7 was in 2016 between the Cavaliers and the Warriors, where the Cavaliers won on the road, claiming their first championship in franchise history. This matchup is considered one of the classic battles of the past decade. However, in the last 19 Game 7s of the Finals, the home team has won 15 and lost 4, so the Thunder are still favored to emerge victorious.
