Basketball stars Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever and Isaiah Jackson of the Indiana Pacers teamed up this week to help a local family in need begin their journey toward achieving home ownership.

The two joined a company called Group 1001 and Habitat for Humanity to make it happen. As Clark and Jackson played basketball with children, volunteers built the structure of what will be a new home for the Krost family.

"Our trailer was falling apart so I applied and we went through an orientation process and I got assigned a budget coach, and from there we went off," said Dusten Krost.
Caitlin Clark also helped build a basketball hoop for the three kids who will live in the home.

The Krost family's house is expected to be completed sometime in October or November.
