The first ever NBA Awards Show was held on Monday night where the best players this past season were awarded for their individual brilliance. From past and present NBA players, to Drake hosting the show, it was a star-studded affair that lived up to the anticipation of many. Nicki Minaj also had a very entertaining number which brought the crowd to their feet.

Many took notice of Houston Rockets guard James Harden, who was seen clapping for the R&B superstar mid-way through her performance. But it wasn’t just any ordinary admiration as he was looking at her very attentively and did not even blink during the time the camera was focused on him.

The Beard may not have won the MVP Award this year, as it was given to his former teammate with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Russell Westbrook, but he appeared to have enjoyed himself a lot on the night, as he was very happy to see Nicki Minaj.

This will definitely not be the last time fans will remind him of his stare, but for what it's worth, many also admire the artist, not just for her singing prowess, but also for her looks.
