Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton is a pretty big sneaker guy. He has some of the rarest and most expensive pairs in his collection, which includes the most hard-to-find Travis Scott’s.
Apparently, one of Haliburton’s Travis Scott pairs was so precious to him that he never even bothered taking it out of the box — a fact that got the rapper fuming when the Pacers star told Scott about it.
Indiana Pacers News: Travis Scott Got Mad at Tyrese Haliburton

According to Haliburton, he once ran into Scott during a party after the latter had gifted the All-Star point guard with a pair of Scott’s new kicks. Haliburton thanked the hip-hop star for the present before revealing that he planned to put it away as a keepsake. This did not sit well with Scott.
“‘They in the box still, they not coming out,'” Haliburton told Scott. “He was angry. He got mad that I said that. He was like, ‘What?! Are you a hooper or are you a hooper?’ … You better take them out the box.'”

Shoe collectors have a saying that goes, “rock ’em, don’t stock ’em” — or something along those lines. Clearly, Scott believes in this mantra, and he made sure to deliver this exact message to Haliburton.
It sounds like the Pacers star learned his lesson that day, too.
