It looks like some NBA players are not sold on the Tyrese Haliburton hype.
Haliburton received the most votes for the “Most Overrated Player” in The Athletic’s annual anonymous player poll, earning 13 of 90 votes (14.4%). No other player came particularly close, with Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert finishing second at nine votes (10%).
After struggling with his shot early on, Haliburton bounced back to average 18.6 points and 9.2 assists per game. He led the league in assist-to-turnover ratio for players who played 50+ games and helped guide the Indiana Pacers to their first 50-win season since 2014.
Only 1.5% of voters picked the Pacers as the NBA’s best organization, resulting in a tie for 11th.
