Tyrese Haliburton not happy about reaction to LaMelo Ball’s injury

Fresh off dropping a career-high 28 points and leading the Sacramento Kings to a win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, Tyrese Haliburton spoke his mind.

The rookie was asked about fellow first-year pro LaMelo Ball’s season-ending wrist injury and shared how he wasn’t pleased with some of the posts he saw on social media, celebrating that he would become one of the favorites to win the NBA Rookie of the Year Award.

“It was kind of frustrating to see people tagging me and stuff and hitting me up, it seemed like people were excited or something,” Haliburton said.
