Tyrese Haliburton has become one of the NBA's biggest stars, a free-wheeling upbeat point guard extraordinaire with a flair for the dramatic. It should come as no surprise that his game was modeled after one of the all-time great Lakers, Magic Johnson.
The Los Angeles Lakers would obviously rather have Haliburton playing in purple and gold than suiting up for another team, but knowing that the legacy of Magic Johnson lives on with another generation of stars is the next best thing.
Netflix just dropped season 2 of its hit documentary Starting 5, and one of the players they followed last season was Indiana Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton.
