Although it may have been a Kylie Jenner-packed birthday weekend, Khloé Kardashian made sure to keep a little room for her rumored boyfriend, James Harden.
Kardashian was spotted sitting dead center at Harden's playoff game at King Drew Magnet High School in the Compton area of Los Angeles on Saturday.
According to The Mirror and E! News, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star was seen smiling, as she watched the basketball player score 25 points to assist the LAUNFD play to an 83-72 victory over the Citi Team Blazers.
The 31-year-old sported aviators, a plunging black tank top under a bright red, floral Adidas track jacket, coupled with peep-toe booties.
The couple's budding relationship appears to have begun about two weeks after Kardashian finalized her divorce from Lamar Odom following allegations of the former NBA star's cheating and relapsing back into drug abuse.
The reality star supposedly met her new basketball beau through older sister Kim, who introduced the pair at Kanye West's basketball-themed birthday party.
According to The Heat Magazine, via Mirror, the Kardashian-Jenner family is very encouraging of Khloé's new romance with the 25-year-old.
"This guy is the opposite of Lamar -- he's a really good guy," a source revealed. "All of Khloé's family and friends are encouraging it. He's younger so she has a bit of power, and he's successful, one of the top five players in the game. He's a real catch."
Kardashian and Harden have been heating things up since the Fourth of July weekend. They were spotted on three dates over the holiday weekend -- the first being dinner in Las Vegas at Wazuzu before heading to Chris Brown's show at Drai's nightclub.
The two were reportedly smitten the entire evening. "They were all over each other. They walked in holding hands. They were laughing and whispering in each other's eases. They looked really happy," an insider recalled. "They were definitely more interested in each other's company than eating. He was caressing her back and she was smiling."
The pair has not commented publicly on their summer romance, however Kardashian posted a picture of her and Harden's post-workout on her Instagram account. This may be all the confirmation fans need, since couples who slay workouts together, stay together, right?
