Tyrese Haliburton had his best performance of the early season in the Sacramento Kings’ 112-99 win over the New Orleans Pelicans, scoring NBA Jerseys20 points dishing 7 assists while not turning the ball over once.
According to Luke Walton, the all-around fashion in which Haliburton played last nigNBA Western Conference Champsht is how he wants him to play every night and thinks it has the potential to rub off on his teammates.
“I’ve challenged him,” Walton said. “I want his personality imprinted on our team. He is that type of guy and I want him to be as loud as he wants to be. I don’t even care if he makes mistakes right now. If he wants to call his own play coming off of the free-throw line, call it.
