While it's been a few years since James Harden last took the hardwood in a Houston Rockets uniform, his masterful performance against the Boston Celtics on Sunday should excite local fans about a potential reunion with “The Beard” for the 2023-24 season.
After getting lit up on Twitter for his subpar play in the previous two games, Harden reminded viewers why he is among the NBA’s all-time great players with his Game 4 performance on Sunday afternoon.
Down 107-105 in the closing seconds of regulation, Harden used a crossover to blow by Celtics center Al Horford before rising up and hitting a left-handed floater to send the game into overtime.
