The Los Angeles Clippers headed into Friday's matchup with the objective of putting an end to the Atlanta Hawks' four-game winning streak. The Clippers themselves were coming off a victory against the Miami Heat on Wednesday, and they were looking to build on that.
As the stars arrived at State Farm Arena for the game, it's hard to deny that it was Clippers star James Harden who stole the show. The former league MVP has always been known for his flashy outfits, but this time around, Harden turned heads with his stunningly lavish ride.
Harden arrived in a custom Maserati -- it appeared to be an MC20 -- for the game. His eye-catching whip was part of a promotional campaign to spread the word on the launch of his newest Adidas shoe.
"can't be out here mismatch… #Uno. 'Metamorphosis' available globally tomorrow," he posted on X.

Harden's lavish arrival quickly grabbed the attention of fans on social media.
"Car tuff, shoes tuff, clothes tuff, accessories tuff, aura tuff " a comment on X read.
"Everything is impressive, truly," said another.
"Damn the shoes the car, NGL when it comes to Aura and just pure vibing no one matches you," a fan declared.
"the car match the shoooeeees, tuff uno, gonna try and get me a pair" a user wrote.
"FIRE " commented another.
"Smh knew you were wilding out tn after ts," a reaction read.
True enough, Harden did go off on Friday to help lead the Clippers to a convincing 121-98 road win. The 11-time All-Star registered 25 points on 8-of-14 shooting, to go along with eight rebounds, seven assists, two steals, two blocks and four triples in 36 minutes of action.
Harden and Co. have improved to 37-30 after Friday's victory. They are back in action on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets at home.
