Mikyle Rafiq, popularly known as N3ON, made headlines when he met one of his childhood favorite stars James Harden of the Los Angeles Clippers during his live stream. The Clippers star was attending an event in which the streamer was also present, hence, N3ON took the opportunity to strike up a conversation with the 36-year-old star.

It has been a poor start to the season for the Los Angeles Clippers, led by James Harden. While Harden has put up impressive numbers this season as he is currently averaging 26 points, 5.2 rebounds and 8.2 assists, it has not had an effect on the Clippers’ results. The franchise find themselves lingering at 14th in the Western Conference standings with an abysmal 6-21 record.

Things have been all over the place off the court as well after the recent exit of Chris Paul. The sudden cut-off was not viewed well by the NBA world due to Paul’s history with the franchise and also considering he had announced that the 2025-26 campaign would be the final chapter of his illustrious career.

If things continue this way for a few more games, it is highly likely that the Clippers may shut down their season and questions will be asked regarding the futures of star players like Harden and Kawhi Leonard. This season, Harden has shown that while he may not have the same impact on winning as he once did, he is still a force to reckon with on his day.

N3ON is a popular live streamer on the streaming website called Kick. The 21-year-old met Harden at an event and had a word with the former league-MVP winner. N3ON took the chance and tried his luck by asking one of Harden’s associates if he could do a collaboration with the NBA star on his live stream. The associate informed N3ON that it would cost him a million dollars which stunned the streamer.

A million dollars. (N3on replied, ‘Huh?’) It’s going to be a million dollars.

N3ON could not believe and asked:

Are you dead a**?

The associate explained the reason for such a high fee for the NBA superstar.

Yeah. he don’t do podcasts, he don’t do interviews, none of that sh*t. If you got a million dollars, he will do it. (N3on replied, ‘That’s the only way?’) $999,999. You got it.

The Clippers star is on a two-year, $81.5 million contract, which shows the value of a personality like Harden. Therefore, it is understandable why a collaboration with him would cost so much.

Fans react to James Harden’s astronomical fee for a collaboration

After hearing the figure on the live stream, fans were left shocked and took to social media to express their opinions. Here are some of the reactions:

James Harden may be on the move

It does not look like there is much hope left in this season for the Clippers. Their whole project since the signing of Leonard has completely fallen apart, and it may be time for the franchise to hit the reset button.

While Harden and Leonard are not the players they once were, they can still contribute at a high level. There will be more doubts when it comes to Leonard due to his lack of availability, but Harden is a player a club can count on.

As the trade deadline approaches, a lot of reports have surfaced regarding the future of Harden. According to journalist Marc Stein in his Substack, several clubs are monitoring the 11-time NBA All-Star. One of the teams interested and in contention for the championship is the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Surrounded by the likes of a young Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle, Harden can fit in as the point-guard and play as a playmaker that they desire.
