"Adidas China tour, 'Uno Fest,' sees basketball star James Harden attracting multitudes of supporters"
James Harden's 2025 adidas Uno Tour in China is drawing massive crowds, with thousands of fans turning out to see the basketball superstar at a mall in Guangzhou City[1][2][3][4]. The tour, which includes stops in Foshan, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou City, has been a celebration of Harden's enduring global popularity, particularly in China[2].
During the tour, adidas surprised Harden with a custom tribute court unveiled in his honor, featuring a larger-than-life mural and a unique design celebrating his career[2]. The enthusiasm of the fans was evident, with people lining up against barriers on four floors to watch Harden's arrival[1].
In addition to the tribute court, Harden's China tour features the launch of the Harden Vol. 9's shoes[6]. The crowds were treated to a special performance by rapper Gali at the "Uno Fest" event for Harden[5].
Meanwhile, the LA Clippers have been making moves to strengthen their roster. James Harden and Bradley Beal spoke multiple times throughout the signing process, and Beal ultimately reached a buyout agreement with the Phoenix Suns before signing a two-year, $10.6 million deal with the Clippers[7]. Harden championed the LA Clippers as the perfect destination for Beal[8].
Brook Lopez also joined the Clippers, signing a two-year, $18 million deal[9]. Harden and Beal's signings come as the Clippers utilized their full mid-level exception, valued at $14 million, due to Harden's deal[10].
During the tour, Harden was gracious with his fans, high-fiving them and signing jerseys, shoes, posters, and basketball cards[4]. The tour continues through August 6th[6].
