'James Harden partied with Lil Baby': Rockets superstar missed training camp to attend Atlanta rapper's birthday bash

Lil Baby took to social media to show off the inordinate amount of gifts Houston star James Harden got for him for his birthday.

James Harden is no stranger to having high profile friends in the entertainment business. Houston’s very own Travis Scott and Harden have been seen hanging out in Houston multiple times. Scott even invited him on stage during his Astroworld tour.

Lil Baby and James Harden have recently been seen hanging out together in the latter half of this year. Back in November both Harden and Baby took a trip to Las Vegas to cash out at the casinos.

Instead of turning up for preseason camp with the Houston Rockets, Harden stayed in Atlanta to party with the ‘Drip Too Hard’ hitmaker. This news hit the tabloids and spread like wildfire. There was speculation about whether this was Harden’s attempt to force a trade away from the Rockets.

James Harden spent more than $300k on Lil Baby’s birthday gifts.

Baby took to Instagram to show off the various gifts the Houston Rockets All-Star for him. Baby said, “He got me a Prada bag cus he proud of me. Full of honey buns, with a honey bun. 2 (Richard Mille) in one day.”

Harden most definitely takes care of his friends and this is clear evidence of that. The total of a Prada bag along with Richard Mille watch would have to total at least $300k.

A funny part of this video was the fact that Lil Baby left Harden hanging when he went in for a dap-up.
