The Indiana Pacers returned to the win column after notching a 115-114 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks last night.
Tyrese Haliburton made the biggest play of the game. He hit an off-balance three-point shot during an inbound play and converted the ensuing free throw following a foul on Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Pascal Siakam, who finished with 25 points, 12 rebounds, and five assists on 10-for-15 shooting from the field, said he wasn’t surprised about Haliburton’s late heroics.
“Tough players make tough plays,” Siakam said about Haliburton via Tony East of Forbes Sports.
Indiana Pacers prepare for three-game road trip
More than hitting the game-winning shot, Indiana Pacers fans are happy to have Tyrese Haliburton back at full strength.
The Indiana Pacers will take on the Philadelphia 76ers, Milwaukee Bucks, and Minnesota Timberwolves on the road later this week.
Indiana improved to a 36-28 record this season – good for the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference and level with fourth-seeded Milwaukee.
