twitter.com/cL80zeYBNg Indiana’s All-Star guard broke out in the first half of Game 2, sinking five three-points, tying his playoff high in his first 15 minutes of play. Before Wednesday, he was shooting just over 30% from distance, but started the game 5-for-8 behind the arc.
Hali drills his 4th triple for 19 PTS Pacers lead by 10 approaching halftime in Game 2 on TNT! pic.twitter.com/dfwJfOpZ31 Haliburton shot above 40% on threes in every season before this one, when his accuracy slumped after he rushed back from a hamstring injury.
