Tyrese Haliburton Felt He Got 'Iced' Like a Kicker Before Game-Winner Over Bucks

Tyrese Haliburton came out as the hero in the Indiana Pacers' 115-114 win over the Milwaukee Bucks win on Tuesday. The Pacers trailed 114-111 with under four seconds remaining in the game when Haliburton hit a game-tying three over Giannis Antetokounmpo despite being fouled, and then shot the game-winning free throw.

Before Haliburton could shoot his free throw, the Bucks challenged the play, leaving Haliburton waiting in anticipation for his opportunity to win the game. Haliburton initially thought the foul might be waived so that the game would go to overtime, and felt like he was a kicker getting iced before attempting to kick a game-winner.
