Tyrese Haliburton is having the best season of his young career. Haliburton was named an All-Star in his first full season with the Indiana Pacers, but what are his contract details, including salary, length, and more?

According to Spotrac, Haliburton signed a four-year, $17.9 million rookie scale contract with the Sacramento Kings in 2020. His salary for this season is around $4.2 million and $5.8 million next season.

The Pacers exercised their team options for Haliburton's third and fourth-year salaries. The 22-year-old guard is also eligible to sign a rookie max extension in the summer. He's a core player for the Pacers, so it's expected that they will eventually agree on a deal.

Tyrese Haliburton has simply been amazing for the upstart Indiana Pacers. Haliburton is averaging 19.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, 10.1 assists and 1.8 steals per game. He's currently fourth in assists and third in steals per game in the NBA this season.

The Pacers were off to a great start to the season and it was mainly due to Haliburton's play. However, he got hurt last month and Indiana have slid down the standings to the 12th spot in the Eastern Conference. The Pacers are 2-10 without Haliburton this season.
