Tyrese Haliburton told @PatMcAfeeShow he supposed to throw out the first pitch at a Milwaukee Brewers game last summer.
But then the Brewers nixed it after the Pacers knocked the Bucks out of the 2024 playoffs. – 4:22 PM

NBA’s Last Two Minute Report reviewed 25 plays and just one was incorrect from the 4Q/OT.
Says Haliburton should not have had an and-1 with 17.1s left in OT. No foul on AJ Green because it was a legal guarding position.
