Cyclones in the NBA: Week Two
11.09.2023 | Men's Basketball
Cyclones continue to make their mark throughout the NBA, as this week featured a career performance as well as an Iowa State record.
Tyrese Haliburton - #0, Indiana Pacers (5-3)
Tyrese Haliburton had a week to remember in The Association, as the former Cyclone tied his career-high for points scored in a game, dropping 43 on the Hornets. Haliburton's 43 points are the most ever recorded in an NBA game by an ISU player.

Tyrese and the Pacers went 3-1 on the week, capping off the four-game stretch with a win over Horton-Tucker's Jazz after a 41-point win over rookie phenom Victor Wembenyama and the San Antonio Spurs. Haliburton has been playing so well, people are traveling from across the planet to see him play.
