In the Pistons' 121-117 victory over the Pacers, Pacers guard Halliburton played 39 minutes, 6 of 13 shots, cut 19 points, 9 rebounds and 17 assists, and did not have a single mistake, seeing his performance, I believe it was another painful day for Kings fans, and still can't figure out why in that trade, the Kings will use Halliburton as a trading chip, this season, the latter has played 51 games for the Kings before the trade, Averaging 14.3 points and 7.4 assists per game, shooting 45.7 percent from the field and 41.3 percent from three-point range, it's pretty good for a 22-year-old.
However, even so, the King still chose to replace Harry Burton, and after coming to the Pacers, he enjoyed the core treatment, with more ball rights in his hands. The average number of shots per game has also increased from 16.4 in the Kings to 18, the average data has also come to 17.3 points and 9.8 assists per game, the scoring and organizational ability has gradually developed in the direction of first-class, and the Pacers have always had a set for developing players, I believe that As long as Halliburton is not injured here, he will definitely grow into a top star.
Compared with Fox, Haliburton may be more comprehensive, more worthy of training, shooting ability and organizational offensive ability are far stronger than Fox, and the latter has been fixed in foreign countries for so many years, the ceiling is only so high, on the contrary, Haliburton played 17 + 9 data in the second season of his career, there is still a lot of potential to develop in the future, replaced by many people to choose, they are definitely more willing to take Haliburton as the core of the team to cultivate.
In addition to sending the Pacers an excellent team core, the foreign team also hitched a top shooter, and after coming to the Pacers, Hield found the feeling of playing the game again, playing for the Pacers in 23 games, averaging 18 points and 5 rebounds per game, and was able to shoot 3 three-pointers with 36.5% shooting rate in each game. Without Hield, look at who else can shoot in the Current Kings lineup? Fox averaged 29.7 percent from three-point range, Mitchell averaged 31.8 percent from three-point range, Holliday averaged 35.7 percent from three-point range, Di Vincenzo 33.9 percent and Lamb 32.7 percent. Looking back now, in order to wait until Sabonis Jr., thus giving up potential rising star Halliburton and top shooter Hield, did this operation really earn?
