After witnessing her man sink another game-deciding shot that lifted the Indiana Pacers to victory, Tyrese Haliburton’s stunning girlfriend celebrated the win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. 

Jade Jones was seen having a celebratory drink on her Instagram story after her boyfriend swished a floater from just inside the 3-point line to secure the Game 1 NBA Finals triumph on the road. 

Haliburton and Jones have been dating back to their days at Iowa State, where the now-Pacer became one of the best players in Cyclones’ history and his beau was a cheerleader. 

The couple have been dating for more than six years, celebrating their latest anniversary back in April. 

Jones was seen before the game getting ready in her hotel room, wearing a black top with a glitzy gold watch on her right wrist. 

Jones’ jeans had her man’s last name spelled out in big block lettering down her right pant leg.

Jones was also seen arm-in-arm with friend Destiny Crump walking out of Paycom Center in Oklahoma City waving Pacers towels. 

Jones and Haliburton are good friends with Caitlin Clark and her boyfriend and former Indiana assistant coach, Connor McCaffery.  

Thanks to Haliburton’s heroics, the Pacers are three games away from their first NBA Championship in franchise history. 

Haliburton only finished with 14 points, but the game’s final deuce will be the remembered shot heading into Game 2 on Saturday night. 

It was Jones’ boyfriends’ fourth game-tying or game-winning shot of the postseason, with his second-straight Game 1 pivotal bucket. 

Last month, Haliburton’s prayer from the perimeter that hit the back rim, floated in the air for around a second and swished in Madison Square Garden took the life out of the New York Knicks and had their Eastern Conference rivals on the back foot until their playoff ouster.

For the second straight series, Haliburton worked his magic with Jones cheering him on.
