James Harden was a happy camper after the 49ers' 36-24 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night at Lumen Field.
The Los Angeles Clippers star, a Southern California native, is a 49ers fan, and he was in attendance for San Francisco's bounce-back Week 6 victory.
Harden waited for 49ers players in the tunnel after the game, and celebrated with wide receiver Deebo Samuel, tight end George Kittle and safety George Odum.

Samuel gave Harden a parting gift, as the wide receiver signed his game-worn jersey for The Beard.
San Francisco 49ers
Harden's 49ers ties date to Jim Harbaugh's tenure as coach, with the two linking up at Candlestick Park in 2014. Harden also met star linebacker NaVorro Bowman during that visit.
The timing of the 49ers' visit to the Pacific Northwest worked out perfectly for Harden, as the Clippers are scheduled to play a preseason game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle.
