Tyrese Haliburton played his first game in more than 400 days after tearing his right Achilles in Game 7 of the 2025 Finals: 7 points (3-8), 6 assists, a steal and 2 blocks in 16 minutes as Indiana beat Minnesota 123-112 at Iowa State's Hilton Coliseum. He bought out both student sections at his old college arena. Fans lined up from 11 p.m. the night before and later chanted 'Put your shoes on' when he sat in sandals.
"It's the loudest preseason game I've ever been a part of." - Tyrese Haliburton
