Travis Scott is warming up for his Coachella return with some well-deserved relaxation — and what better way to kick back than courtside at an NBA game? The rapper was spotted at the Los Angeles Clippers vs. Houston Rockets matchup on Wednesday, taking in the action at Inglewood’s Intuit Dome without a single issue from security — a refreshing change from a previous incident.

The game drew in big names from entertainment and sports, including Floyd Mayweather, model Draya Michele, Clippers owner Steve Ballmer, and of course, La Flame himself. Travis, 33, came through with fellow Cactus Jack artist Sheck Wes to support his hometown team, the Houston Rockets, in style.
While the night was all about basketball, Scott likely had his sights set on a much bigger stage — the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, where he’s set to headline on Saturday. The festival marks his first appearance at Coachella since 2017, and anticipation is sky-high following his promise to debut new music during his set.

A Smooth Experience This Time
Fans may recall a previous awkward run-in between Travis and a security guard at another Clippers game. Back in November, as Scott attempted to exit the court, a third-party staffer who didn’t recognize him grabbed his arm, unaware of his floor access credentials. Travis quickly pulled away and kept moving. The Clippers later issued an apology for the misunderstanding.
Fortunately, this time was all smooth sailing. With his floor credentials clear and no unnecessary interruptions, Scott was free to enjoy the game and soak in the energy before his big performance in Indio.
Travis Scott’s Coachella Return
Travis Scott’s 2025 Coachella performance is one of the most talked-about events of the festival. Originally slated to perform in 2022, he was removed from the lineup following the tragic events at Astroworld in 2021. His return this year is not just a comeback — it’s a moment fans have been waiting for, and Travis is expected to deliver with a set full of surprises, visuals, and fresh tracks.
With his Coachella stage nearly set and no courtside drama in the way, everything seems aligned for Travis Scott to light up the desert this weekend.
