Tyrese Haliburton became the first ever player in the history of the NBA to achieve this remarkable feat as the Pacers defeat the Lakers.

The loss that the Los Angeles Lakers sustained at the hands of the Indiana Pacers was devastating. They had a lead of 17 points at one point in the fourth quarter, but the Pacers came back and won the game thanks to a game-winning three-point shot made by Andrew Nembhard in the last seconds of the game.

Anthony Davis once again took the lead for the Lakers, scoring 25 points and grabbing 13 rebounds to lead the team to victory. Russell Westbrook added 24 points to the team total, and LeBron James scored 21 of the team’s points. Tyrese Haliburton and Benedict Mathurin were both active and contributed to the Pacers’ victory by scoring 24 and 23 points, respectively.

Tyrese Haliburton created history after his performance against the Lakers. As per NBA.com/Stats: Since individual turnovers have been tracked (1977-78), Tyrese Haliburton is the first player with 40+ assists and zero turnovers over a three-game span.

Haliburton has been sensational since getting traded to the Pacers from the Sacramento Kings last season, and once again he showed why he is one the best young guards in the league. The Lakers’ record dropped to 7-12 with this defeat at the hands of the Pacers, while the Indiana Pacers’ young team is enjoying a fantastic season and improved to 12-8 following this decisive victory.

41 straight assists (and counting) without a turnover might be a record as well.
