Haliburton was coming off a 26-point, nine-rebound, 11-assist performance against Milwaukee on Monday night. Well, not only did he keep his foot on the gas on Wednesday night. The All-Star point guard took it to another level to lead the Pacers to back-to-back wins over their Central Division rivals.
Haliburton finished Wednesday’s huge win with a game-high 31 points on 10-of-20 shooting. He added two rebounds, 12 assists, a steal, three blocks, and zero turnovers in 34 minutes of action. To cap off his eye-popping performance, the 23-year-old knocked down five triples on 11 attempts.
