Tyrese Haliburton had 5-word explanation for his performance

Haliburton couldn’t have made a bigger statement while wearing those shoes. He went 6/13 for 14 points with 10 rebounds and 6 assists. Most importantly, he made the winning shot with 0.3 seconds left to give his Pacers a comeback win.

Haliburton’s explanation for his winning shot was clear.

“It’s gotta be the shoooeeesss (sic),” Haliburton wrote on X after the game.

Haliburton was so proud of his big game in his new shoes that he brought them to the podium for his postgame appearance with the media. He credited them as the “secret sauce” for the win.

If you made a winning shot in the playoffs like he did on the day you debut your signature shoe, you’d be parading them around everywhere too. What a night for Haliburton and his shoes.
