Ranking Tyrese Haliburton's 4 game-winning shots from 2025 playoffs After his shot in Game 1 of the Finals, Tyrese Haliburton has compiled an impressive catalog of game-winners in these playoffs. Brian Martin, for NBA.com Updated on June 6, 2025 4:14 PMTyrese Haliburton added to his lengthy list of game-winners in the 2025 playoffs with this clutch shot in Game 1 vs. OKC. A game-winning shot in the playoffs can be a career-defining moment for a player and a highlight associated with them long beyond their playing years. Tyrese Haliburton is building a collection of these shots throughout Indiana’s playoff run, with the latest coming in Game 1 of the NBA Finals in Oklahoma City on Thursday night. It was Haliburton’s fourth go-ahead or game-tying bucket in the final five seconds of the 4th quarter or overtime this postseason — and the fifth of his career. Only one player has more such shots than Haliburton in the play-by-play era (since 1997-98): LeBron James (who has eight). Let’s break down each and rank them based on the shot itself and the fallout result. 1. Game-winning jumper with 0.3 seconds left vs. OKCTyrese Haliburton hits a game-winner with 0.3 seconds remaining to cap the Pacers' stunning rally in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. 2: Game-tying jumper at the buzzer vs. New YorkDown 14 with 3 minutes left, Tyrese Haliburton's buzzer-beater sends Game 1 to overtime and helps Indiana stun New York. 3: Game-winning stepback 3 vs. ClevelandThe Pacers come back in the 4th quarter as Tyrese Haliburton drops a game-winning 3 to stun the Cavaliers in Game 2, 120-119. 4: Series-clinching layup in OT vs. MilwaukeeIndiana needed a miracle in the final seconds against Milwaukee, and Tyrese Haliburton answers with an off-balance 3-pointer, plus the foul. That’s how great Haliburton has been this postseason: a series-clinching shot is his fourth-best clutch bucket of the 2025 postseason. Indiana still has at least three more games for him to keep adding to the list. As great as his postseason run has been, hitting clutch shots is something Haliburton has done all season. After Thursday’s win, he is shooting a ridiculous 86.7% (13-of-15) on game-tying or go-ahead shots in the final two minutes of the 4th quarter or overtime. Game 2 is Sunday in Oklahoma City (8 ET, ABC). The Thunder have lost only two home games to an East opponent in the past 450 days … and both came against Haliburton and the Pacers. (责任编辑:) |
