Tyrese Haliburton made a strong first impression in Indiana. The 21-year-old guard averaged 20.8 points and 11 assists while shooting 45.8 percent from 3-point range in his four games with the Pacers prior to the All-Star break.
Now, the next question for Pacers fans is how Haliburton – acquired from Sacramento in a six-player trade on Feb. 8 – fits alongside Malcolm Brogdon in the Blue & Gold's backcourt.
It appears fans will get a first look at the pairing, as Brogdon – who has only played one full game since Dec. 15 due to a sore right Achilles – told reporters at Wednesday's practice that he expects to play on Friday, when Indiana hosts Oklahoma City at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
