Nobody was more fired up about James Harden’s debut with the Cleveland Cavaliers than Travis Scott.
The world-famous rapper was courtside for the Cavaliers’ road contest against the Sacramento Kings at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, Calif. Harden gave him plenty to cheer about down the stretch.
After a quiet first three quarters, Harden went off for 15 points in the final period to help the Cavs avoid an upset loss against the Kings. Harden was having his postgame interview next to Donovan Mitchell following the 132-126 victory when Scott decided to crash the party.
“We’re going to the young! What are we doing? … What the f–k?” Scott screamed into the mic, with some unintelligible words mixed in.

Mitchell and Harden couldn’t help but laugh as Scott left the scene as quickly as he had arrived.
If there’s any positive in the Scott crash-out, it gave Mitchell and Harden a bonding moment they probably won’t forget anytime soon. The two All-Star guards were still feeling each other out early but developed some chemistry as the game went along.
Mitchell led all scorers with 35 points on 13/24 shooting, while Harden tallied 23 points on an efficient 7/13 clip in his first game with the Cavaliers. Travis Scott was there to soak it all in.
