Tyrese Haliburton invited to NBA 3-point contest

Former Cyclone Tyrese Haliburton has been invited to the league’s 3-point contest, held annually during the skills competition on Saturday.

Haliburton is among the league leaders in 3-point percentage as well as assists per game, which earned him a spot in Sunday’s All-Star game.

Haliburton has helped the Pacers throughout the season, despite a recent stretch of losses, and had a big three late in the game on Monday night against the Jazz.

The Pacers ended up losing the game late, and the weekend break can’t come soon enough for their fans.

Saturday’s skills competition kicks off at 7:00 p.m. on TNT.
