NBA assists leader Tyrese Haliburton showcased a stellar performance, recording a career-high 20 assists without a turnover and contributing 21 points to lead the Indiana Pacers (16-14) to a 120-104 victory over the Chicago Bulls (14-19) on Thursday night.
Myles Turner led the Pacers with 24 points, supported by Buddy Hield’s 19 points.
Despite the efforts of Patrick Williams (22 points) and DeMar DeRozan (21 points), the injury-plagued Bulls couldn’t secure the win, losing two of their last three games in a challenging six-game homestand.
Coby White, stepping up in the absence of Zach LaVine, struggled with a 5-for-19 shooting night, scoring 16 points.
