Indiana Pacers: Tyrese Haliburton’s Wild Achievement Puts Him in John Stockton, Chris Paul Territory

The Indiana Pacers snapped a two-game losing skid on Sunday by taking down the Miami Heat at home, 119-110.

That was also some sweet revenge for Tyrese Haliburton and company, as Miami defeated Indiana last Friday, 124-111.

Haliburton played a big role in that payback Indiana victory, as the former Iowa State Cyclones star guard put up 16 points, dished out 13 assists, grabbed three rebounds, and swatted away two shots on defense.

He shot just 4-for-16 from the floor but did not hurt his team with turnovers.

In fact, he was great in ball security, as he did not turn the ball over even once in the win over the Heat despite a heavy usage.

With that, Haliburton earned a mention in the same sentence with legendary point guards John Stockton and Chris Paul.
