Reggie Miller on Tyrese Haliburton: I really do believe that he can carry the Pacers to a championship
You can count Reggie Miller among Tyrese Haliburton’s biggest fans. Miller, the greatest player in franchise history, is back in Indianapolis for NBA All-Star 2024. Now in his 19th season with Turner Sports as a broadcaster, Miller sung the praises of Haliburton, Indiana’s 23-year-old phenom point guard, during a press conference on Friday afternoon in downtown Indianapolis. “I really do believe that he can carry this team to a championship,” the Hall of Famer said of Haliburton.

How would Rik Smits and Reggie Miller fare in today’s NBA?
“We could really stretch out the defense. That would’ve been awesome. I would’ve loved to play in today’s NBA! They didn’t want me shooting 3s. But I know I could’ve done it. I would’ve loved to!” legends-mag.com//rik-smits-lat… pic.twitter.com/JWIWevwyVM – 4:38 PM

Heard great things about Tyrese Haliburton recording another podcast earlier today.
– Talked about how he looks at Twitter for negative comments at the half when he is playing bad.
– Also said he’s extra motivated against the Pistons because they took Killian Hayes over him. pic.twitter.com/K5UPu82L5L – 4:17 PM

More on this storyline
Miller was a five-time All-Star, with his first All-Star selection coming in 1990 in Miami in just his third NBA season. “I remember in 1990 walking into the locker room for the first time, and there’s Larry (Bird) and there’s Isiah (Thomas) and there was Jordan and there was Joe Dumars and there was Robert Parish, there was Charles (Barkley), Patrick (Ewing),” Miller said. “And I’m thinking to myself, like, ‘What am I doing here?'” “That’s what I remember the most, being humbled walking into that locker room, going over to the corner because I didn’t want to look anyone in the eyes because I couldn’t believe I was in the same (room)…I’m sure that’s what Shai (Gilgeous-Alexander) and Tyrese and some of these guys will be experiencing when a LeBron walks into the room. I mean, it’s that type of feeling.” -via NBA.com / February 16, 2024

You are the face of the 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis. How much pride do you have in that and how unique is that to have it in the town you star in? Tyrese Haliburton: It’s a pretty cool moment. It’s something that I, obviously, take pride in with the love and support that I get from the fans. But it is something that our organization is relishing in because playing for the Pacers in a small market, you shouldn’t be a lead guard in All-Star votes. That’s not really a thing that happens. -via Andscape / February 15, 2024
