On a chaotic Mother’s Day filled with ejections, blowouts, and playoff headlines, one of the NBA’s most heartfelt moments quietly played out on the feet of Tyrese Haliburton.
As the Indiana Pacers scorched the Cleveland Cavaliers with a record-setting 80-point first half en route to a commanding Game 4 win, Haliburton took the court wearing special Mother’s Day PEs—custom kicks dedicated to the woman who never missed a single game of his youth: his mother, Brenda Haliburton.

In a season where the emotional spotlight had shifted onto his father, John Haliburton—now barred from attending Pacers games due to an altercation with Giannis Antetokounmpo during the previous series—Tyrese’s subtle tribute to his mother was a masterstroke of grace. And make no mistake: it wasn’t just about the shoes.
