So, Tyrese Haliburton re-shared Josh Giddey’s Puma shoe story on Instagram—with nothing but a side-eye emoji. No caption, no tag—just vibes. This comes right after Sole Retriever confirmed that “the Australian has become the latest NBA player to sign with Puma,” joining Tyrese and LaMelo Ball on the roster. Coincidence, or did someone else clock the timing and start wondering what it meant? Is this a subtle collab hint? A little recruiting action? Whatever it is, the look exchanged online definitely raised some eyebrows.
And it hit right after Indiana was told to go after Giddey. With Haliburton set to miss a big chunk of the season and Myles Turner gone, the Pacers need a floor general—badly. Indiana’s biggest weakness is playmaking, especially with Haliburton out, and unequivocally, the one move they should have made was signing Josh Giddey. Giddey, with his size, youth, and elite passing, could have run the offense, maintained the Pacers’ tempo-based identity, and perfectly bridged the gap until Haliburton’s return.
The Bulls are dragging their feet in free agency, reportedly offering $8 million less than Giddey wants. That’s Indiana’s opening. And now, with IG looks flying and the Bulls hesitating… it might be time to pounce.
(This is a developing story…)
