As a Brooklyn-born storyteller who lives for underdog moments, I watched in silence as Tyrese Haliburton collapsed in the Finals. This wasn’t just a loss—it was a gut punch to every athlete who’s ever sacrificed their body for glory. In this raw, personal take, I break down why this moment hurts so deep, what it says about modern NBA pressures, and how we can honor athletes not by their wins—but by their courage. #AchillesInjury #NBAFinals2025
