Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton took a jab on social media at the postgame game ball drama caused by Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Following Antetokounmpo’s career night, in which he scored a career-high and franchise record 64 points, he sprinted toward the Pacers locker room for the game ball. Indiana had planned to keep the ball for rookie Oscar Tshiebwe, who scored his first career point on Wednesday night.
Antetokounmpo eventually retrieved the game ball thanks to Bucks security, but later complained in the postgame press conference that he didn’t even think it was the real game ball that he was presented.
