Tyrese Haliburton Leads Pacers to Comeback Victory in Game 1 Against Knicks
Tyrese Haliburton produced a big double-double to lead his team to a 138-135 overtime victory in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the New York Knicks on Wednesday. He finished with 31 points and 11 assists, pushing the game past regulation with a buzzer-beating shot. Haliburton had a quiet fourth quarter but more than made up for it with the dramatic bucket, which sent the game to overtime after New York had led by 14 points with under three minutes remaining in the period. The two-time All-Star finished 12-for-23 from the field and shot 4-for-12 from behind the arc, wrapping up his line with four rebounds and one assist. This was Haliburton's sixth double-double of the postseason and his second consecutive 30-point game. He appears to be peaking at just the right moment as the Pacers hope to return to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2000.
