Kings rookie guard Tyrese Haliburton suffered a non-contact injury to his left knee and was removed from Sunday’s game vs. Dallas.

Bringing the ball upcourt in the third quarter, Haliburton attempted a behind-the-back crossover dribble and his knee appeared to give way as his weight shifted with the move. He was helped off the court and immediately headed to the locker room, ending his night with 11 points and 5 assists in 23 minutes.

Later reports indicated that an MRI would be forthcoming, but the Kings were “hopeful” Haliburton has avoided serious injury.

Luke Walton said Tyrese Haliburton will get an MRI on Monday and the team is "hopeful" there is nothing serious with his left knee. Walton said Haliburton was in good spirits and happy for his teammates getting the win.
