  • 99-78-3 4th Place
    • Leads all scorers in loss
      Haliburton totaled 34 points (11-19 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and three steals in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 130-121 loss to New York in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Haliburton finally found some rhythm on the offensive end, putting up a game-high 34 points, including seven triples. Although the Pacers managed to put up a respectable total, their defense simply wasn't up to the task of slowing down the Knicks. With the series now shifting to Indiana, Haliburton will look to build on this performance in the hopes of keeping the series alive. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:38 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton bounces back, scores 34 points
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) finished Wednesday’s 130-121 loss to the Knicks with 34 points (11-of-19 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), six rebounds, nine assists, three steals, and seven 3-pointers in 35 minutes.

      Advice: After attempting just six shots in Monday’s Game 1 loss, Haliburton was the focus of many conversations. He was far more aggressive on offense in Game 2, attempting eight shots in the first quarter alone and finishing with a game-high 34 points. Haliburton can be even more aggressive on that end of the floor, which could happen in Game 3 on Friday. Despite the defeat, Wednesday’s performance was a step in the right direction for the All-Star point guard. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:16 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) available for Game 2 Wed.
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Knicks.

      Advice: As expected, Haliburton is available and will start Game 2. He only attempted six shots in Game 1, which is way too low for a player of his caliber. Look for Haliburton to be far more involved in the Pacers offense as a scorer, which could cut into his assist tally. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:58 pm
       
    • Cleared for Game 2
      Haliburton (back) is available for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton has been battling back spasms throughout the playoffs, but he'll play through the issue once again Wednesday. However, it's possible the back spasms could impact his effectiveness considering he scored just six points in 36 minutes during Game 1 on Monday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:13 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) questionable Wednesday
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s Pacers-Knicks matchup.

      Advice: Haliburton has struggled as of late and scored just six points his last time out. His lingering back issue hasn’t caused him to miss time, but T.J. McConnell could continue to be a more significant contributor if Haliburton doesn’t get back on track. Rotoworld Tuesday, 3:07 pm
       
    • Listed as questionable again
      Haliburton (back) is questionable for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Knicks.

      Advice: Haliburton continues to deal with back spasms that popped up ahead of Game 4 of the opening-round series versus Milwaukee. He scored only six points in Game 1 (2-6 FG) against the Knicks, but he did have eight assists and four steals. If the back issues worsen, we may see more of T.J. McConnell, who was fantastic off the bench during Monday's loss. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:33 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton scores six points in Game 1 loss
      Tyrese Haliburton shot 2-of-6 from the field in Monday’s 121-117 loss to the Knicks, recording a stat line of six points, two rebounds, eight assists, four steals, and two 3-pointers in 36 minutes.

      Advice: The Pacers hope this series will work out similarly to their first-round triumph over Milwaukee regarding Haliburton’s offensive production. He reached double figures in the final five games of that series after scoring nine points in the first-round opener, and the All-Star point guard was limited to six on Monday night. Haliburton did rack up eight assists and four steals, so all wasn’t lost for DFS players. However, he’ll need to do more as a scorer in this series, even with Indiana’s overall firepower. Haliburton will look to rebound in Game 2 on Wednesday. Rotoworld Monday, 7:42 pm
       
    • Quiet offensively in Game 1 loss
      Haliburton posted six points (2-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt), eight assists, four steals and two rebounds over 36 minutes in Monday's 121-117 loss to New York in Game 1 of the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Haliburton had a quiet performance offensively in the first game of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, though he still impacted the game in other ways, including by leading the Pacers in assists and steals despite failing to reach double figures in scoring. Haliburton posted his lowest point total of the postseason thus far, failing to reach double digits for the second time in seven playoff contests. Haliburton has been dealing with back spasms, and that may have affected his performance Monday. Rotowire.com Monday, 7:30 pm
       
    • Tyrese Haliburton (back) available for Game 1
      Tyrese Haliburton (lower back spasms) will play in Game 1 against the Knicks on Monday.

      Advice: Unsurprisingly, Haliburton will suit up for the first game of this series. He is still managing this back issue, but he didn’t miss any time during round one. He should continue to start and play a ton of minutes. Rotoworld Monday, 3:41 pm
