Tyrese Haliburton's GF Jade Jones gets into heated exchange with a fan during NBA Finals Game 2

Jade Jones, the girlfriend of Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton, got into it with an OKC Thunder fan in Game 2 of the 2025 NBA Finals. Haliburton and the Pacers entered the contest with confidence after stealing Game 1 with another come-from-behind victory.

In a video shared on social media, cameras caught Jones talking with a fan, and it was very intense amid the incredible atmosphere inside the Paycom Center in Game 2. The couple has been together since they were students at Iowa State, with Jones continuing to support Haliburton in the NBA.

Trash-talking is part of the game, though some people can get too caught up in it. She was seated with Tyrese's parents, John and Brenda Haliburton, with the former in his best behavior. He famously got banned temporarily from Gainbridge Fieldhouse for his actions in Game 5 of the first-round series between the Pacers and Milwaukee Bucks.

Here's the video of Jones being animated and fiery on the sidelines.

Tyrese Haliburton made headlines after Game 1 when he hit the game-winning shot with 0.3 seconds left to lift the Indiana Pacers 111-110 over the OKC Thunder. The Pacers never led the entire game and were down by 15 points in the fourth quarter.

However, they proved time and time again that they can never be counted out. It was their fifth come-from-behind win in this postseason and the fourth comeback victory down big in the fourth quarter.

Haliburton has proven that the "Most Overrated Player" tag was unwarranted, sending an unwavering message to the NBA that he has arrived.

Tyrese Haliburton's girlfriend admits to getting called out for being a yapper

Speaking on WAG Talk back in April, Tyrese Haliburton and Jade Jones opened up about their relationship. The couple was asked several questions, with one of them being who's the bigger yapper. Haliburton pointed to Jones, who admitted that she usually gets called out for talking too much.

"I get called out for yapping a lot," Jones said.

"Yeah, her. No question," Haliburton replied.

With that admission, it wasn't surprising that Jade Jones was yapping again in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. Nevertheless, it's harmless as long as no boundary is crossed. It's a game, and anyone can be passionate about it.

Maybe she can stay on the court and not repeat what John Haliburton did, especially if the Indiana Pacers win the 2025 NBA Championship.
