Tyreke Evans put on his dancing shoes for Monday night’s preseason game against the Washington Wizards.

The New Orleans Pelicans swingman caught an entry pass in the high post during the third quarter and did everything but moonwalk to the arc while attempting to reposition himself with the ball.

Next Impulse Sports’ John Ferensen crafted a GIF of the moment. The baseline official ran toward the action, managing to keep an eye on everything but Evans’ rendition of the “Cupid Shuffle.”



It was a travel worthy of The Proclaimers, and it went completely uncalled. Traveling, however, is a time-honored tradition in the league. Even the greats—especially the greats—utilize shuffling and footwork to get to the basket.

Warning: Video contains some NSFW language.



Some salsa, others shuffle. It all comes down to personal preference and officiating cataracts.

The Pelicans won the game 88-84.
