“What impresses me most about Haliburton is his unselfish play and how he makes everyone around him better. He has great size and athleticism, he can create for himself and others and he shoots the ball at a very high rate. He’s also a really good defender, applying a lot of pressure with that length and doing a great job of anticipating.”
