“Had a little bit to do with it”: Tyrese Haliburton credits historic playoff performance to his father’s presence

Tyrese Haliburton’s father, John, was banned from attending games after he had confronted Giannis Antetokounmpo following the end of the Bucks-Pacers series. John's ban was lifted starting Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals. With his dad back in the crowd, Tyrese erupted for a historic performance.

Tyrese Haliburton credited his historic triple-double to his father being allowed back in the arena:

“I feel like we’re making up stats at some point to make me look better.”

“I’m glad Pops is in the building. Makes it that much more sweet. Yeah, he had a little bit to do with it.”

Up 3-1, Haliburton and Co. are one win away from taking Indiana to its first NBA Finals since 2000. Their last trip to the Finals was ruined by Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal's LA Lakers in six games.
