Caitlin Clark rocked custom Nike shoes honoring her dog in her WNBA return
Indiana Fever superstar guard Caitlin Clark made her triumphant return to the basketball court on Saturday at home after missing the last couple of weeks with a quad strain.
For this special occasion, Clark rocked a custom pair of Nike Proto PE's called "The Bellas" in a tribute to her dog, Bella.
The shoes have an adorable photo of Bella on the back of the soles, which makes the custom game sneakers all the more awesome.
We love that Clark found a way to honor her beloved pup in her big WNBA return against the New York Liberty at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Dogs are the best, of course, and so are these custom Nike game shoes.
