Rockets reportedly expect to bring James Harden back to Houston
The 33-year old guard ended last year with 21 points and an NBA-leading 10.7 assists per game.
According to Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer, the Houston Rockets’ expectation is to bring James Harden back to Texas during the offseason.
The reporter adds that the consensus among NBA insiders is that the guard will eventually return to Houston.
Harden will not exercise his 35 million-plus player option to sign a new multi-year deal with his next team.
Houston in free agency will have around 60 million in salary cap space, so they can offer Harden a max-contract.
