"Since day one, we've always focused on the next generation of basketball at PUMA. Tyrese is not only defining his own generation, but also is shaping the future of the game for many more to come," said Max Staiger, Global Head of Basketball at PUMA.

Staiger continued, "We're extremely grateful for the opportunity to partner with Tyrese to continue working on our disruptive next-gen approach to basketball."

Haliburton will be seen on NBA courts sporting PUMA's latest performance technology shoe, the All-Pro NITRO. Designed to deliver unmatched comfort, support, and responsiveness, the All-Pro NITRO is the perfect shoe for athletes who demand the best.

The brand has not yet mentioned anything about a signature sneaker line for Haliburton. But that could potentially come in the future. Currently, Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball and Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson have signature lines with PUMA.
