HOUSTON — The Adidas Pro Bounce Low has been Donovan Mitchell’s go-to sneaker for the beginning of his sophomore season.
But ahead of the Utah Jazz’s road game Wednesday versus Houston, the star guard switched back to a fire red/black version of the Adidas Dame 4 shoe with “Lauren McCluskey” etched on the soles.
The University of Utah's basketball coach was the first to share the art via Twitter, tweeting “Much Respect Donovan Mitchell” then Mitchell responded with a 38-point performance in a 100-89 win against the Houston Rockets to help Utah improve to 2-2 on the season.
