Tyrese Haliburton won’t have his father in attendance for Indiana’s playoff run for the foreseeable future. John Haliburtion will not attend any Pacers playoff games after his verbal altercation with Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo at the conclusion of Game 5, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.

Tyrese nailed a game-winning shot in overtime to push the Pacers past the Bucks and into the Eastern Conference Semifinals on Tuesday night. As the horn sounded, John Haliburton was seen walking onto the court and taunting Antetokounmpo.

After having conversations with the Pacers front office, John Haliburton won’t attend home or road games, a team spokesperson told Charania.

During his postgame media availability, Tyrese admitted that he didn’t believe that his father was “in the right” when it came to the situation.

Antetokounmpo explained how the situation unfolded as he said that John approached him with a towel that featured Tyrese’s face. John then began shouting “This is what we do! This is what we f—in’ do!” at Antetokounmpo.

Antetokounmpo admitted that he had no problem with them celebrating the Pacers’ big win, but John could’ve acted in a more humble fashion.

“I’m happy for him and I’m happy for his son. That’s how you’re supposed to feel,” Antetokounmpo said. “But coming to me and disrespecting me and cursing at me. I think it’s totally unacceptable. Totally unacceptable.”

Antetokounmpo did say that he thinks that the situation between himself and the Haliburton family has been smoothed over.

The Pacers are slated to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of the NBA playoffs after dispatching of the Bucks.

Confident, Disciplined, Explosive: Ohio State’s Defense Chasing Greatness

<!--> [--> RJ Young FOX Sports National College Football Analyst <!--> --> Minnesota head coach P.J. Fleck knows what his Golden Gophers are up against Saturday: a No. 1-ranked Ohio Stateteam that, in his words, might be the best team the Buckeyes have had under head coach Ryan Day.Fleck isn’t one to hand out compliments lightly. Like his own team, the Buckeyes reflect the attitude, demeanor and habits of their head coach. Day’s group is confident, disciplined, and explosive — traits Fleck both respects and recognizes.So when Fleck singles out a fellow coach for praise, especially the one standing across the field this weekend, it’s worth listening."He’s an incredible man, first of all, and then just a fabulous coach," Fleck said.

Liberec hostí Bohemians, Pardubice vyhlíží první výhru

Hledá se forma. Zn. spěchá. Asi tak lze popsat rozpoložení, v němž se momentálně nachází třináctá Dukla i patnácté Teplice. Mančaft z Julisky vyhrál v nejvyšší soutěži jen 16. srpna proti Plzni, od daného momentu zaknihoval tři porážky (Sparta, Bohemians, Slavia) a dvě remízy. Jediný triumf Sklářů je ještě o dva týdny starší, porazili 3:0 Bohemians ve druhém kole. I proto dělí v tabulce obě mužstva jeden jediný bodík.Výrazně povedenější vstup do sezony si zajisté představovala i dvanáctá Mladá Boleslav, stejně jako čtrnácté Slovácko. Domácí mají k dobru odloženou dohrávku s Bohemians (nový termín 22. října) a jeden zápas oproti zbytku soutěže k dobru, ale i tak tuší, že mají na víc. Proti mančaftu z Uherského Hradiště, který v sezoně vyhrál zatím jen nad Teplicemi, se papírově nabízí slušná příležitost. Ale i Slovácko umí kousat, ve čtvrtém kole například uhrálo cennou remízu 1:1 v Plzni. Z posledních pěti zápasů ale uhrálo pouze bod v Pardubicích.Právě poslední celek tabulky z Pardubic zůstává i po trenérské rošádě jediným, […]

Hvězdy z klece věří před řežbou Procházkovi: Zase trefí nějakou šílenost

Už když se oznámil Procházkův souboj proti Rountreemu bylo jasné, že na sebe narazí podobné styly. Český samuraj miluje dovádění v postoji, díky němuž sestřelil celou řadu protivníků. „Nebude se chodit kolem horké kaše, půjde se rychle k věci. Bude to zběsilá jízda,“ předpovídá nejlepší domácí těžkotonážník Michal Martínek.„Myslím si, že to rozhodně bude atraktivní zápas pro diváky, protože oba jsou střelci v postoji, což by Jiřímu mohlo sedět. Khalil je sice tvrdý a dobrý bojovník, ale myslím si, že by mu neměla sedět Jiřího neortodoxnost,“ přemítá uznávaný trenér André Reinders. „Jiří ho díky tomu rozstřílí a jasně porazí před limitem,“ odhaduje průběh boje.🚨 ENCARADA 🚨O último contato visual entre 🇨🇿 Jiri Prochazka e 🇺🇸 Khalil Rountree antes da batalha de meio-pesados de elite pelo UFC 320, neste sábado. pic.twitter.com/kMVrZDLkWa— MMA Melotto (@MMAmelotto) October 4, 2025 I proto se nedá příliš očekávat skotačení na zemi.

Men’s Uttarakhand Premier League 2025: Nainital Tigers Seal Eliminator Berth with Victory Over USN Indians

View Comments Dehradun: The Nainital Tigers delivered an impressive batting display at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, chasing down 179 with ease to defeat the USN Indians by six wickets. What appeared a challenging target on paper became a comfortable chase, thanks to exceptional innings from Shashwat Dangwal and captain Bhupen Lalwani, whose composed batting steered their team home with 13 balls to spare. The Nainital Tigers entered the contest on eight points, seeking a vital victory to strengthen their position and boost their chances of reaching the finals stage. With tonight's triumph, Nainital joined Haridwar on 10 points. However, Haridwar's superior net run-rate of 2.022 sees them advance directly to the final on 5 October, while Nainital's NRR of 0.770 sends them to the Eliminator instead. Their opponents in the Eliminator will be either Dehradun Warriors or Rishikesh […]
