Apparently, Tracy McGrady's historic NBA career doesn't give him a pass on rookie hazing.

Foot Locker continues to get ready for the holiday season by launching their latest ad with NBA superstar Damian Lillard and retired NBA-great Tracy McGrady. Titled "Rookie", the commercial showcases the adidas Originals ZX Flux shoe, but also proves that at 35-years old, McGrady isn't immune to some old fashion rookie hazing. McGrady retired from the NBA after being one of the most prolific scorers of his time, but now plays in China and has to earn his right of passage once again. Lillard will soon join McGrady as the latest adidas athlete to get his own signature shoe, and the two really seemed to enjoy working well with eachother.

"Working with Tracy to promote the adidas Originals ZX Flux in Foot Locker's new commercial was a blast," said Lillard. "His sense of humor about restarting his career oversees is hilarious. I'm not too far removed from my rookie season, and any young player can definitely relate."

Check out the hilarious spot below, and head over to Foot Locker for all your holiday sneaker needs.
