Brooklyn Nets star James Harden is currently in France to take part in Paris Fashion Week.
But it seems that the All-Star guard ran into trouble with authorities after he was seen being frisked by police. Harden was with American rapper Dominique Jones, who is also known as Lil Baby.

According to TMZ, 20 grams of marijuana were discovered inside the car Jones was riding in. While the rapper was arrested for allegedly transporting narcotics, Harden was reportedly released.
Harden is currently recovering from a hamstring injury that caused him to miss a significant number of games in the past regular season. It also limited his mobility in the playoffs as the Nets were eliminated by the Milwaukee Bucks in seven games.
It was certainly a disappointing result for Brooklyn, especially since the team has one of the most potent superstar trios in the league.
Surely, Harden is hoping this speed bump off the court is resolved as quickly as possible.
