Underdog NBA: "Tyrese Haliburton (groin) listed questionable for Friday."
The former 12th-overall pick has been one of the best players in the entire NBA to start the season.
He is averaging 19.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 11.2 assists and 1.8 steals per contest (the assists per game lead the NBA).
With the way he has played, there is a very good chance that he will be headed to his first All-Star Game.
The Pacers are also off to a solid start to the season, with a 12-9 record in their first 21 games.
They are currently the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference and 7-3 in their last ten games.

As for the Jazz, they got off to a good start but have gone cold.
In their first 24 games, the Jazz are 13-11, but they have gone just 3-7 in their last ten games.
At home, they have been hard to beat, with a 7-3 record in ten games hosted in Salt Lake City.
