Tyrese Haliburton is bringing his NBA career back to where his rise began. On October 7, 2026, the Indiana Pacers are set to face the Minnesota Timberwolves in a preseason game at Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa the home floor where Haliburton played college basketball for Iowa State. To make the homecoming even bigger, the Pacers announced a student-section Gold Out featuring a special “Cyclone Hali” design.
Cyclone Hali GOLD OUT Shirt – Tyrese Haliburton’s Iowa State Homecoming
The Cyclone Hali GOLD OUT Shirt immediately stands out with its bright gold base, connecting the design to Iowa State’s familiar cardinal-and-gold identity and the special Gold Out planned for the game.
At the center is a playful caricature of Tyrese Haliburton wearing an Indiana basketball uniform. He spins a red-and-gold basketball on one finger while running, surrounded by sweeping cardinal, gold, and navy rings that create a cyclone effect around his body. The illustration cleverly connects Haliburton’s current Indiana career with his Iowa State Cyclones roots.
Underneath, flowing script spells “Cyclone”, followed by oversized collegiate-style “HALI” lettering. The combination makes the graphic feel like a crossover between college basketball nostalgia and modern Pacers culture.

The Ames game has genuine personal significance for Haliburton. He played at Iowa State before entering the NBA, and he has described bringing the Pacers to Hilton Coliseum as his idea. Haliburton also helped make tickets available to current Iowa State students, adding to the homecoming atmosphere.
The connection runs even deeper: Iowa State previously honored Haliburton for becoming the program’s first men’s basketball player to win an Olympic gold medal.
For Cyclones and Pacers fans alike, the Tyrese Haliburton Cyclone Hali shirt captures a unique moment when Ames and Indiana basketball meet on the same court.
