All-Star guard Tyrese Haliburton has the Indiana Pacers two wins from upsetting the No. 1 seed Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Haliburton hit the winning 3-pointer Tuesday to give the Pacers a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 series.

LeBron James -- who's been active on X (formerly Twitter) as of late with the Los Angeles Lakers out of the postseason -- has also taken note. "Hali fkn hooping!!!!" he wrote. "Where the lames who said he was overrated??!! Quiet as hell. That boy NICE and even more someone everyone would love to play with!"

Myles Turner and the Indiana Pacer stunned the Cleveland Cavaliers after Tyrese Haliburton's game-winner, which drew LeBron James comparisons.

Quietly, at least in comparison to his personality, Haliburton is going about the business of scripting his own Hall of Fame legacy.

Haliburton helped the Pacers complete an epic comeback to eliminate the Bucks and took a jab after the game at his peers who voted him "most overrated" in a recent poll.

After Pacers' Game 5 win, NBA Hall of Famer Isiah Thomas said Tyrese Haliburton's game reminded him of another Indiana point guard: Caitlin Clark.
