Miller did the choking gesture toward director and rabid Knicks fan Spike Lee in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals between the Pacers and Knicks in 1994. He scored 25 points in the fourth quarter of that game to overturn a 12-point deficit at the start of the period and lead the Pacers to a 93-86 win.

Tyrese Haliburton was waiting for the right time to bring back Reggie Miller’s choke signal from the Indiana Pacers’ postseason past.
