Speight's story was a throwback to the couple's trip to Italy as they visited Lake Como in June. The duo traveled to the birthplace of the Renaissance last year as they attended former NBA player Rajon Rondo's marriage with his longtime partner, fashion designer Latoia Fitzgerald. The former Boston player tied the knot on June 9 after retiring from the NBA after 16 seasons in the league.

James Harden looks on in shock as girlfriend Paije Speights catches the bride's bouquet at Rondo's wedding

Rajon Rondo's marriage was an eventful affair for James Harden. While he was having a great time with Paije Speights, his reaction to her catching the bride's bouquet left many in stitches.

The former OKC Thunder guard's expression to his girlfriend was one to be seen as X (formerly Twitter) account "Overtime'" shared the clip for everyone to see. The account had a short caption to describe his reaction:

"James Harden’s gf caught the bouquet at the wedding. Peep his reaction."

The video depicted Rondo's wife throwing her bouquet into the crowd. It sailed past everyone and landed right in front of Paije. Overjoyed, Speights picked it up off the floor and turned to look at Harden, who had a shocked expression and appeared wide-eyed at the entire event.

For those unfamiliar with the tradition, catching a bride's bouquet typically signifies that the catcher will be the next to get married. Given that Harden and Paije had only been dating for five months, it’s no surprise that Harden appeared wide-eyed and uneasy throughout the entire commotion.
