'BTS' J-Hope visited a venue of the National Basketball Association (NBA).
On the 4th, J-Hope shared an NBA-themed photo on social media. He attended a game between the LA Lakers and the Golden State Warriors, held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, USA.
He revealed a special jersey, holding up a Lakers uniform with "J-HOPE" printed on it. His birth year (94) was inscribed as his player number. The team prepared it for him.
There was another gift as well. Before the game, J-Hope met Luka Dončić, who presented him with unreleased sneakers. The sneakers are reported to be the Air Jordan 3 Seoul 2.0.
The NBA also welcomed J-Hope's visit. They shared several photos and videos on social media, explaining that "J-Hope arrived early to watch the LA game (before his performance)."
This is not the first time BTS has collaborated with the NBA. Suga was appointed as an NBA ambassador in 2023, promoting professional basketball in the United States.
Meanwhile, J-Hope is currently on his North American tour and will perform at LA's BMO Stadium on the 5th. He will hold a solo concert titled "HOPE ON THE STAGE."
