Marissa was a hit in Miami, but actually calls Atlanta home.
Following her rise to online stardom, the former gymnast and cheerleader was gifted with courtside seats for the Hawks game last night.
She subsequently posted pictures and a short video clip from her plush seat to her more than 400,000 Instagram followers.
“Thx for having me,” Marissa wrote.
The influencer even revealed that it had been her first NBA game.
Marissa signed with Most Valuable Promotions as a ring girl back in May.
She worked on the Katie Taylor-Amanda Serrano show, while she had been booked for Paul’s cancelled bout with Gervonta Davis.
Marissa is not the first social media star to rise to fame on a Jake Paul card.

Fellow ring girl Sydney Thomas also became an online smash hit following the Problem Child’s dust up with Mike Tyson last year.
After Marissa signed with Most Valuable Promotions, Sydney was one of the first to congratulate her.
Sydney commented on her Insta post, “LOOK AT HER GO.”
Marissa watched the Hawks narrowly lose 128-125 to the Knicks at State Farm Arena.
Atanta superstar Trae Young was held to just nine points by his old New York foes.
Although Onyeka Okongwu did explode for 31 points, his efforts weren’t quite enough.
Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 36 points for the Knicks, while Jalen Brunson added 34 points off 29 shots.
