Tyrese Haliburton's gold medal social media post is A-plus
If anybody missed former Oshkosh North High School star Tyrese Haliburton receiving an Olympic gold medal after the U.S. defeated France on Saturday in the men's gold medal basketball game, it doesn't appear Haliburton will feel disrespected.
The Indiana Pacers star, who has often played with a bit of a chip on his shoulder while earning his due as one of the better point guards in the NBA (just ask the Milwaukee Bucks), deserves high achievement marks for his social media game after poking fun at his lack of time on the court in Paris.

Haliburton saw just 26 minutes of action over three of the six games, but obviously didn't mind taking a back seat to the veteran stars on Team USA.
ESPN's Brian Windhorst reported that Haliburton had a minor leg injury that the national team did not announce.
Only 24 years of age, chances are strong that Haliburton's name will be on more than one Olympic roster.
He's already projected to be part of the 2028 squad in Los Angeles.
