Falling all the way to No. 12 to the Sacramento Kings, Tyrese Haliburton is considered by many as one of the biggest steals of the recently-concluded NBA draft. That's not the only reason the 6-foot-5 guard has been making waves, though, with the mean streets of Twitter apparently taking a liking to his stunning girlfriend.
Twitter went crazy when they set eyes on Haliburton's beau, as they realized that he wasn't the only steal here (h/t Darelle Lincoln of Total Pro Sports):

Residents of the city of Sacramento for landing Tyrese Haliburton's stunning girlfriend, and possibly getting a chance to see her beauty in public one day. Good for you guys

Haliburton’s girlfriend might be the next Ceedee lamb type

This particular Houston Rockets fan was so infatuated with Haliburton's girlfriend that he decided to propose a trade between the Kings and Rockets want-away star James Harden:
Just curious but can we trade Harden for Tyrese Haliburton's girlfriend? Idk how the salaries would work but just having her in Houston seems like a more than adequate return for our MVP💘

For another Twitter user, he commended Haliburton's girl for not getting in the way of a family moment:
Shoutout to Haliburton’s girlfriend for getting out of the way and letting his dad stand by him. Seen way too many girlfriend’s make the moment about them. I see you, queen.

In case you were curious — because honestly at this point who isn't — here's a semi-decent snap of the woman of the moment from draft night:
Finally off the board.

She's the one in the red dress, sitting to Haliburton's left, in case you hadn't figured that out already. Her name? Jade Jones — a name befitting of such a beauty. Here are a couple of (way) better shots of Jones:

As you may have realized already, Haliburton has long been a winner even before the Kings scooped him up on Wednesday night. What a stud. And no, we're not jealous. You're jealous.
