Tyrese Haliburton - Nearly leads upset winHaliburton put up a career-high 38 points (11-19 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 11-12 FT) and added seven assists, three rebounds and three steals across 40 minutes Saturday in the Kings' 103-101 lo...ImpactWith De'Aaron Fox (ankle) missing a fourth consecutive game, Haliburton once again benefited from elevated usage, though he was able to capitalize on the extra opportunity Saturday after combining for only 18 points on 7-for-23 shooting from the field between the previous two contests. Expectations for Haliburton should remain somewhere between the two extremes moving forward, though he'll see a downturn in both his field-goal and free-throw attempts regardless whenever Fox is able to return to the lineup. All told, Haliburton has mostly been able to build on his promising rookie season, as he's mostly maintained his shooting splits from a year ago despite upping his scoring and assists average by 1.3 and 1.9 per game, respectively.
