This is a very bad decision for their team to risk their star player health that will cost his total career in the future. He will received negative criticism regardless if he will play or not if they lose the game so he should just sit on the bench and trust his teammate.

He can also just play on crucial time like 4th quarter and very minimal minutes every quarter to lessen his foot pressure.

You have just ended Haliburton's career there if he does that even by force lol.

He tore his Achilles and not just a simple foot pressure. He might not even stand properly the whole season. And even let's say he can play, the crucial time is the most physical part of the game, as every ball possession is a must to score.

It’s sad that they haven’t learned from what happened to some star players in the past, remember Durant and Thompson? Both were rushed to play even though they weren’t 100%, just to help their team. The result? They reinjured themselves and ended up missing the following season. That kind of gamble isn’t worth it if the long-term damage is that severe.

Maybe the player also pushed to return, but at the end of the day, it’s the management that should make the final call.
They’re the ones who invested in the player’s future, so they should be more careful in protecting that investment.

Agree to that, players is an investment for the team owner they have the last call to whatever decision that the team needs, a temporary solution might work but in the long term goal, it might affect the player condition, much better to complete the process of healing and make sure that the player already healthy before giving the green signal to play, invested time may bring better long term outcome best for both individual and the team itself.
