In a shocking development that has sent ripples across the NBA, Indiana Pacers star guard Tyrese Haliburton has been banned indefinitely from all game activities after testing positive for a prohibited substance, ESPN has confirmed.

According to league sources, the 25-year-old standout tested positive during a routine NBA-administered drug screening. The specific substance has not yet been disclosed, but the league has launched a full investigation into the matter.

Haliburton, a two-time All-Star and the cornerstone of the Pacers’ recent playoff resurgence, had been instrumental in Indiana’s rise as an Eastern Conference contender. His suspension comes just weeks after he led the Pacers to one of their most successful seasons in recent memory.

The NBA Players Association has yet to release an official statement, but sources close to Haliburton insist that the test result was “unexpected” and that his legal team is preparing an appeal.

Pacers management has expressed “shock and disappointment” at the announcement, adding that they will fully cooperate with the league while offering support to Haliburton throughout the process.

More updates will follow as the league releases further details.
