Pacers' Tyrese Haliburton: Explodes for 30 points
Rotowire
Haliburton had 30 points (10-11 FG, 6-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, two assists and three steals over 26 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 128-123 loss to the Celtics.
Haliburton didn't offer too much outside of his scoring figures, but this was the best shooting performance he's had in his NBA career so far after needing just 11 shots to reach the 30-point mark. The former Kings point guard endured a slump in March, but that seems to be in the past now. He's recorded 25 or more points in two of his last three contests, a span in which he's also notched two double-doubles.
Haliburton (back) has been cleared to play Thursday against Memphis.
As expected after he moved from questionable to probable earlier in the day, Haliburton has been given the green light to take the floor. With Malcolm Brogdon (rest) out, Haliburton could be looking at another high-minute, high-usage night as the Pacers play out the string on a lost season. Haliburton is coming off of a 13-point, 15-assist, three-steal effort against Sacramento on Wednesday night.

Pacers' Tyrese Haliburton: Questionable for Thursday
Rotowire
Haliburton (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday against the Grizzlies.
Haliburton has not missed a game since Feb. 8, but he's been dogged by a sore lower back over the last few days. With the Pacers already down several regulars and clearly looking to improve their lottery positioning, it wouldn't be a surprise if Haliburton ends up being ruled out on the second half of a back-to-back set. He finished Wednesday night's loss to the shorthanded Kings with 13 points, 15 assists, five boards, three steals and a block.
