Tyrese Haliburton Joins Amazon’s NBA on Prime, Debuts on ‘NBA Nightcap’ During NBA Cup Quarterfinals

The sidelined Pacers All-Star uses the new role to share analysis, documenting his Achilles rehabilitation for viewers.

Overview

  • Amazon Prime Video named Haliburton a player contributor with his first appearance set for NBA Nightcap following Tuesday’s NBA Cup quarterfinal doubleheader.
  • Prime said he will make five appearances this season and appear in short features that chronicle his recovery from the Finals Achilles tear.
  • Haliburton remains ruled out for the entire 2025–26 season but continues to show progress in social posts featuring running, agility work, shooting, and dunking.
  • Indiana has struggled without its lead playmaker, posting one of the league’s worst offensive marks, though recent wins have come with larger roles for Pascal Siakam, Andrew Nembhard, and Bennedict Mathurin.
  • He has stayed active with the team as a vocal presence, including a courtside gesture wearing Johnny Furphy’s jersey to celebrate the rookie’s 21st birthday.
