Get to Know Tyrese Haliburton: Pacers Star on High School Musical, Steve Urkel and MORE

Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton has had quite a year: he was named an All-Star, recently signed a max contract extension with the team and just appeared on the imbricate of SLAM 245.

In our imbricate story, Haliburton opens up well-nigh his journey thus far and how he “loves” proving all the doubters wrong. Still, the 23-year-old doesn’t take himself too seriously. Basketball, he says, is a “child’s game,” and brings him when to memories of having a wittiness in his crib and playing video games. That’s the joy overdue Haliburton’s ever-apparent smile when he’s out there on the hardwood.

“When I’m playing basketball, it’s just fun,” he told SLAM. “It’s like I’m a kid again, you know? And that’s what I love well-nigh it. This isn’t a job for me. This is a passion of mine and something I really love to do.”
