Episode 142: Bennedict Mathurin and Tyrese Haliburton

The Old Man and the Three with JJ Redick and Tommy Alter

Our guest this week is rookie star of The Indiana Pacers and a contender for 6th Man of The Year, Bennedict Mathurin. This kid has so much wisdom and hard work ethic already and we're thrilled to share this interview with you. Topics include: Playing hockey at a young age in Montreal, Canada, moving to Mexico City at a young age to further his basketball journey, why he chose to play at Arizona, what his relationship has been like with Rick Carlisle given his reputation with rookies, his approach to coming off the bench, what Tyrese Haliburton is really like as a teammate, where his confidence comes from, clarifying his previous comments about LeBron James, what LeBron means to his generation of NBA players, his "Welcome To The NBA" moment with Jayson Tatum and Donovan Mitchell and so much more. Then we're joined by OM3 regular, Tyrese Haliburton to get a quick update on his injury, discuss some of his best games of the last couple months and making his clear case for why he's an NBA All Star. Finally, we draft 'Best Mall Stores' with Tyrese. It's a fun one!
