Tyrese Haliburton on Team USA: If they want me back, it's a no-brainer for me
“You want to end on a high note; we didn’t do that, so it’s obviously disappointing. But it was a fun experience. Every time you can play for the USA, it’s a privilege and an honor,” Tyrese Haliburton said. If nothing else, the USA secured their place for the 2024 Paris Olympics, and Haliburton is ready to help the national team again. “100 percent. If they want me back, it’s a no-brainer for me.“

I don’t like using Portis with Banchero. This is a game for Cam Johnson. Also, I love Haliburton, but my man needs to get through a screen one of these days. – 10:00 AM

It seems Grant Hill put this team together with the image of Brunson running the show and Ingram being the go-to scorer — and then Haliburton and Edwards proved to be better at those roles within the context of *this group* (Haliburton’s playmaking and pace, Ant is just a better… – 9:20 AM

“They haven’t won a medal since the 1930s, so they’re coming for us,” Tyrese Haliburton said Saturday. “I think both of our countries will expect to see each other for the coming years. So it seems like this is kind of the start.” -via ESPN / September 10, 2023
Haliburton, like Reaves, is among those Kerr counts on in key moments. He is the American team’s leader in assists (5.4 per game), steals (1.6), and is second on the team in blocks per game (1.1). “Obviously all of us are in different roles, but I think for me, coming off the bench, seeing how I can impact games differently, where I can be better defensively, I think I’ve grown on that end through this experience,” he said. “Obviously there’s still a lot of room to grow, but just seeing myself in different aspects will be interesting going into the NBA season. -via The Athletic / September 9, 2023
It wasn’t supposed to be a bronze, which is what the two North American powers will compete for Sunday (4:45 a.m. ET, ESPN+). But while both teams were upset in the FIBA World Cup semifinals Friday, there is also a realization that this could be the start of a rivalry. “They haven’t won a medal since the 1930s, so they’re coming for us,” Tyrese Haliburton said Saturday. “I think both of our countries will expect to see each other for the coming years. So it seems like this is kind of the start.” -via ESPN / September 9, 2023
