Haliburton Breaks Heft's Assist Record

He's like a high efficiency shooter, but with point guard skills. And a good defender with very high BBIQ. Just develop that offensive game and the body and I surely think he'll be in the NBA.
Why do we have to start with this crap every time we have a good player!
It's just part of life. You don't get many 4-year players and you have to enjoy them while you have them.
Prohm said in the postgame that when he saw him play in person he could tell after a few possessions that Tyrese had " it".
SIAP. Neat interview between the previous record holder and Haliburton.
I think Tyrese will be here for 4 amazing Monte/Niang type years. We are really lucky to have him.
The craziest thing about Prohm's player evaluation is the guys we have missed on or moved on from who have also been good. Jordan Bone and Jaylen Fisher that first year, Wigginton over McKinley Wright, and Haliburton over Tyler Harris, who has looked good for Memphis.
Georges, Monte, Naz, Melvin...should I keep going? We've had a LOT of four year players. What we haven't had a lot of is one & done or two & done players. Maybe it's a step up for the program. Whatever. I just know that I'm going to enjoy the hell out of watching them play for as long as they are here.
Right now Haliburton's body style reminds me of Ron Virgil. The body style of his running mate, Talent Horton Tucker, reminds me of Kantrail Horton! Two pretty good players!
TH mentioning a 'process' in his freshman season.
Quiet mature dude.

To me, Haliburton reminds me of Lonzo Ball, tall PG with awkward looking jump shot but highly effective
This staff's ability to evaluate high school players has been off the charts.
He's just so much fun to watch. The assist where he got the record was just crazy. I thought that record would never be broken, but shooting 70% helps
I guess Prohm knew what he was doing when he picked Tyrese over Tyler Harris.

I don't have a list in front of me, but I can't imagine there are 25-30 freshman that have been better than either THT or Haliburton. They've been terrific this year so far. Excited for conference play.
Glad that MBB allows freshmen to give interviews! TH is very thoughtful and articulate. I could see him becoming a real crowd favorite because of the way he interacts with the press and public.
