Tyrese Haliburton debuted his Puma All-Pro NITRO PE 'DX' shoes inspired by Triple H against the Milwaukee Bucks.
He went on to hit a game-tying three in the final seconds and game-winning free throw as he was fouled on the play.
During the post-game press conference, Haliburton said he didn't hit the DX crotch chop because he didn't want to be fined $25,000 by the NBA for the gesture.
