Not a chance in hell at least no where near the floor ever again. If they want him in one of the boxes fine as he can cause no issues there. But not a chance in hell should his dad be allowed within walking distance of the court ever again. Personally I think he should be banned from NBA games altogether as he has been a habitual bad egg and causes problems. The guy is a loose cannon and should not be allowed near NBA facilities cause it is clear he will never change and will always let his emotions get the best of him cause he is a hot head.

You kinda have 2. Tyrese will be starting his prime when it’s time for a new contract. He could be a top 2 or 3 player and you don’t want any bad vibes when it’s time to negotiate

If Halliburton’s dad is allowed back. We need Unc Sharpe back in 5.

Chuck and Jay Will: “Halliburton Sr. should not only been allowed back, he should be allowed courtside, by the opponent’s side, and be allowed to CHOKE any player, including Bronson and Cat…” Dude, this guy (with a history per Stephen A) should be treated like ANY OTHER fan in a similar situation, not receiving special treatment just because he’s connected to a player.

I say yea. He’s an old man. Give him a pass. If he does it again. Make it forever. To not be there and share what’s going on with his son is a bit much. His son is suffering as well

Why does Tyrese Haliburton’s dad gets national media’s attention again anyway? He’s not an nba player; his son is. This man clearly hasn’t learned his lesson (judging from his action last night). Let this “fan” be treated with the same consequences as any other fan that crossed a line at a game. Tyrese’s dad should remain banned from attending games. Period.

If he’s allowed back in, I can’t wait to see fan bases running onto the court harassing players

If they make the finals you have to let him go, thats not something that someones dad should miss if they are are able I feel.

I mean I understand we all make bad mistakes in certain moments and we can be better, yet still as just a lesson learned, the man needs to wait til after postseason to come back just to show that something like that isn’t tolerated in a sports arena
