October 25 - Halliburton played an outstanding rookie season, ranking third in the best rookie. After a chaotic offseason, Sacramento Kings guard Teres Halliburton sent the message to fans and journalists who still look down on the Kings — no one in sight, at their own risk. They're better than you think.
"Most regular fans just focus on the top two and top three teams in each division," said Harry Burton, who was doing shooting training on Monday as he prepared for the Kings' preseason game against the Portland Trail Blazers. "We went through a lot of big events last year. We lost the game against San Antonio at home and we had a good chance of making the play-offs. Before that, I was injured, H.B. was injured (Harrison Barnes), and Fox got the new crown. Then look at the Kings of the previous year, they were in a good position, but the league was suspended, then the park was rematched, and then things became uncontrollable. ”
Halliburton, the No. 12 draft of 2020 from Iowa, did not play in the summer league and the training camp was short, but still impressed everyone on the first day of his career. In his NBA debut, he scored 12 points in 30 minutes to unexpectedly win the Denver Nuggets, and he quickly established an image of a reliable output point, even with Fox, his scoring was still stable.
"It was a short training camp and it gave me the impression that we were a day old and then we woke up and just remembered to prepare for the pre-season," Halliburton said. "Jumping on the plane and being taken to Denver, I was headed for my first NBA game, and then it was about trying to score and trying to win. Naturally, I accomplished more, and the staff and teammates trusted me more. ”
