With nearly half the Sacramento Kings’ roster sidelined due to COVID-19, Tyrese Haliburton has flourished in the role of primary shot-creator.
De’Aaron Fox, the Kings’ main offensive engine is among those sidelined, meaning Haliburton has been forced into the driver seat for Sacramento. In the three games Fox has missed, Haliburton has attempted 16, 19, and 18 shots, the most shots attempted of any player roster in that time frame.
Haliburton is passive by nature and clearly feels a sense of pride in creating shots for his teammates, but his own shot is a weapon in itself.
