Tyrese Halliburton has been making the most of his 4th of July weekend—even as he recovers from right Achilles surgery—by blending lightheartedness, strong support from loved ones, and unwavering dedication to his rehab journey.
Just days after undergoing surgery in New York, Halliburton was spotted back at the Pacers’ practice facility on July 4th, wheeling around on a knee scooter and wearing a protective boot
He was there not to train, but to stay close to the team, watch the Summer League squad, and help maintain that valuable camaraderie—vital for his mental well‑being.
Off the court, Halliburton’s vibe has stayed upbeat and humorous. His girlfriend, Jade Jones, shared a playful Instagram Story showing him ringing a bell while riding the scooter—calling for her attention with pure mischief during rehab. She captioned it, “this guy did NOT order a bell guys please”
This small but joyful ritual speaks volumes about their bond and his resilient spirit.
The guard has also been candid about the emotional rollercoaster that comes with such a serious injury—citing mental fatigue and physical setbacks. In a heartfelt social post, he described the experience as “shock,” with his foot feeling like “dead weight” before adding, “what’s hurting most… is my mind.” Still, he affirmed his unwavering resolve to rebuild: “Watch how I come back from this… I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Halliburton” .
As families celebrate the holiday, Halliburton is finding his own moments of celebration: laughter, love, and the determination to regain his elite form. It goes to show that recovery isn’t solely about physical healing—it’s equally a mental journey. And with his upbeat attitude, supportive relationships, and continued presence around the team, he’s laying a strong foundation for that comeback.
In short: a lighthearted yet grounded 4th of July—ringing bells, scooting around, watching teammates, and reinforcing that this rehab journey is about building back stronger, both body and mind.
