Fans mock James Harden after NBA star’s hilarious reaction to his girlfriend catching a bouquet at a wedding
Fans had a fun day mocking James Harden’s reaction when his girlfriend Paije Speights caught the bouquet at a wedding.
In the viral video, throwing the bouquet ended up in the back of the room where Harden and Speights were standing. After the ceremony’s coveted prize fell to the floor, Speights picked it up, prompting Harden’s hilarious response.
As Speights excitedly hugged Harden, the LA Clippers star stood stiff with a dead look in his eyes.
“Bro avoids a ring at all costs,” one fan joked, referring to Harden’s tendency to play poorly in the postseason.
“He’s definitely going to trade her to avoid that ring,” said another.

“He said if I don’t get a ring you won’t either,” a fourth added, while a fifth said: “He can’t commit to a team, and in no way has he committed to her. ‘
Harden and the Detroit-based fashion designer made their romance official on Instagram in May.
Harden shared a selfie of Speights, adorned with a red heart emoji. Meanwhile, Speights posted a photo of Haden with the caption: “Uno.”

After stints with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, Brooklyn Nets and a messy divorce with the Philadelphia 76ers, Harden’s wish was granted and he was traded to his destination of choice.
Alongside Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, Harden averaged 16.6 points, 5.1 rebounds and 8.5 assists for the Clippers.
They secured the fourth seed in the Western Conference with a 51–31 record before falling to the Dallas Mavericks in the opening round of the playoffs.
