Houston Rockets guard Victor Oladipo received some shade Wednesday night from Indiana Pacers talent T.J. McConnell. This came after Caris Levert hit an absolute dagger at the end of the game.

It's hard to tell if it's playful or if Oladipo leaving Indiana left some legit tension.

Earlier in the NBA 2020-21 season, Oladipo was traded from the Indiana Pacers in a four team trade that sent former Houston Rockets superstar guard James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets, former Nets shooting guard Caris Levert to the Indiana Pacers, and Oladipo to the Rockets.

Back in 2017-18, Oladipo created a signature celebration following a 33-point performance against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

On Wednesday night, the Indiana Pacers met with the Detroit Pistons in a game that went down to the wire. Levert had himself a game scoring 28 points, grabbing six boards, and ending the game with four assists.

It was not until with 5.7 seconds left when Levert executed a step back to knock down a 27-foot three-pointer to seal the game for the Pacers. After Levert's shot was made, the Pistons took a full timeout, hoping it would create a chance at one final shot.

Pacers point guard T.J. McConnell started mimicking the celebration that Oladipo had done back in 2017. Other Pacers players joined McConnell as they were showing a little shade to their former teammate.
