Previously, due to the absence of James Harden during the opening trip of the Philadelphia 76ers games to compete with other teams, it was the reason for an investigation by the National Basketball Association (NBA). Rumors indicate that the player was stopped by a security officer when entering the team’s plane.
Now, in light of the process, the NBA is investigating cases in which James Harden is involved for the second time. Previously, the player was involved in controversies related to former coach Daryl Morey, in which a video was published on social media in which there were insults and statements that were out of character.
