Basketball fans watching Game 5 between the Phoenix Suns and the Los Angeles Clippers are in love with Devin Booker’s shoes.
The Phoenix Suns are oh so close to clinching their first NBA Finals appearance since 1993, but only if they defeat the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night. It is up to star Devin Booker to close out the Western Conference Finals and to send the Clippers packing.
During Game 5, basketball fans were drawn to the purple sneakers Booker was wearing for the pivotal playoff contest. For those of you wondering, they are the Nike Kobe 6 Protro.

Don’t know if I can live without #devinbooker purple shoes…they retail for $700.00 … good thing they don’t come in women’s sizes or I’d have to mortgage my house. #PhoenixSuns pic.twitter.com/IMEwPYEXpH

Devin Booker’s shoes cost $700
For those fans (like those in the tweets above) wanting to buy a pair of the Nike Kobe 6 Protro, they come at a $700 price tag at retail.
Throughout the 2020-21 season, Booker had been wearing the Nike Kobe Protro 6’s, which featured the colorway of Phoenix’s “The Valley” uniforms. You can view those sneakers in the tweet below, courtesy of the Bleacher Report Kicks Twitter account.
If the Suns are able to pull off the Game 5 win, you can expect plenty of fans to search high and low for those Kobe Protro 4 sneakers.
