Houston Rockets guard James Harden didn’t bother hiding his disbelief on the bench on Saturday night.
The Rockets pulled Harden in the fourth quarter in a 158-111 win over the Atlanta Hawks after he’d scored 60 points in 31 minutes played. It was an incredible night, but it wasn’t a career night. Harden scored a career-best 61 points in New York in Jan. 2019. So when he realized he finished one point shy of his record, Harden was clearly displeased he didn’t get the chance to set a new high. The broadcast showed Harden throwing up his hands, staring at the Jumbotron and blankly staring at the court with a dropped jaw.
Sorry, James. Another night.
