Ten Terrific CGC-certified Cards of NBA Star Tyrese Haliburton

The 2025 NBA Finals are in full swing, with the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder each vying for their team's first-ever Larry O'Brien Trophy. 6'5" point guard Tyrese Haliburton has helped lead the Pacers to the Finals for the first time in 25 years, consistently taking over in crunch time in each series throughout the NBA Playoffs.

Although Haliburton is already a two-time All-Star, he's had an interesting path to stardom. Originally drafted by the Sacramento Kings with the No. 12 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, he was named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team and finished third in Rookie of the Year voting following his debut pro season. However, due to a deep roster full of guards in Sacramento, the Kings chose to deal Haliburton to Indiana before the trade deadline during just his second season in California.

Indiana began to build around the young guard and Haliburton began to add to his individual resume, earning his first All-Star selection during the 2022-23 season and then his first All-NBA selection when he made the All-NBA Third Team for the first time at the conclusion of the 2023-24 season. Haliburton also led the Pacers to the Eastern Conference Finals last season, eventually falling to the Boston Celtics, before making the US national team roster that went on to win the gold medal at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.

This season, the Indiana Pacers built off of last season, taking the next step and making it to the NBA Finals, as the team currently chases a championship. Still only 25 years old, Haliburton has blossomed into a true superstar of the league during the 2025 postseason, hitting clutch shots late in multiple playoff games to help his team advance. While Haliburton is already on the cusp of becoming a household name, he also has a chance to make history by bringing the first-ever NBA title to Indiana.
