When you are recovering from an Achilles injury you find yourself with a lot of free time, which is why Tyrese Haliburton was eager to fill out an NCAA tournament bracket for Reese’s for its “Everything Happens for a Reese’s” March Madness Summit this week.
“I probably haven’t won [an NCAA tournament pool] in a long time, probably since middle school,” says Haliburton “Which is crazy because you would think the more basketball experience I have, the better I would do at one of these. But I’m feeling very confident. Every year I say this, but I’m feeling very confident in my bracket. Ever since I got out of college, if Iowa State’s in the tournament, I’m picking Iowa State. So usually that’s kind of been far-fetched, but this is the year that it feels the most realistic.”
