Although the NBA season has not yet started, teams are still in preparation mode. Player movements remain in full swing, and one of the league’s stars has weighed in on his future. Tyrese Haliburton made it clear where he stands with the Indiana Pacers.
Regarding his future, the recent gold medalist from the Paris 2024 Olympics made an interesting statement on The Pat McAfee Show: “I’m not going anywhere,”
Additionally, he dismissed any rumors of a trade to another franchise: “So if they want to play with me they would then have to come here. The Stephon Marbury comment is a little weird… Why does Phoenix need me, they’ve got Tyus Jones, they’ve got a good squad over there… I mean, I understand but I’m good in Indy, they’re good in Phoenix. Everybody’s good right now.”
