Tyrese Haliburton has got an accent but the NBA fans on social media are not buying it. 

Hali had an unforgettable moment in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. The Indiana star sank a 21-foot pull-up jumper with just 0.3 seconds left on the clock.

One of his other feats that led the Pacers to a thrilling 111-110 comeback win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. 

What made this victory even sweeter was that it was the first time the Pacers took the lead in the game after being down by 15 points in the fourth quarter.

After the game, Haliburton gave an interview with Scott Van Pelt that had fans talking. More than his heroic in the win, fans noticed a shift in his voice.

Though Tyrese Haliburton has mentioned this voice change phenomenon before, his fans are in shambles. He had earlier recalled an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show where the host jokingly asked if their microphones were acting up.

Haliburton laughed it off, explaining that he didn’t even notice it himself and that it’s something people comment on regularly. “I watch podcasts and I’m like, ‘Wow, my voice really did change!’” he said.

However, his fans had a lot to say about his changed voice.

“It’s the devil tryna come out fam,” a fan said.

“The devils tryna communicate thru him like in the Conjuring 2, I’ve seen this before,” another one commented.

“Personality disorder. One is The Haliban and the other is Tyrese,” a third one added.

“Listen when you have 4 game winners in one post season run you can be as zesty as anyone in the league,” a fourth one said.

“It’s a nervous tick But he doesn’t get nervous on the court,” another comment read.

“Going through puberty in the finals is crazy,” a fan joked.

“He has to have had his nose broke growing up and it messed with his vocal pathways,” a user added.

However, during the interview, Van Pelt admitted he was “late to the party” on recognizing how good Haliburton and the Pacers are.

Haliburton graciously appreciated the acknowledgment, shaking Van Pelt’s hand and saying, “A lot of your counterparts won’t admit that now.” 

After scoring 14 points in this exciting game, Haliburton and the Pacers are on to Game 2 against OKC on Sunday night.
