The Indiana Pacers are one of the many young and talented teams that were able to make it into the NBA playoffs this season and will have the tall task of beating the Milwaukee Bucks in the first round, who may not have superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo for this series.
Although the odds are against the Pacers, especially if Antetokounmpo cannot return to the floor for this first-round series, star Tyrese Haliburton believes he and his team are confident to face anyone that’ll be in their way during the postseason.
Haliburton thinks his team is as confident as ever heading into this first-round matchup with the Bucks and feels as if the Pacers can come out on top against Milwaukee, via NBA on ESPN.
“We’re a fully confident group,” Haliburton said. “We really feel like we can play with anybody in the NBA. We’ve felt that way all year. We’ve proven that all year.”
“We’re a fully confident group.”

It has been an interesting season for the Pacers as Indiana got off to a fast start and turned a lot of heads around the league in the process, as they were able to prove their worth and make it to the In-Season Tournament championship game in Las Vegas.
Even though the Pacers ultimately fell to LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers, Indiana was able to do enough throughout the regular season to show they are a team on the rise with a potentially bright future ahead, with Haliburton leading the charge as one of the best young players in the league.
