James Harden had a play for the blooper reel on Saturday night.
Harden was dribbling down court and trying to get a shot off just before halftime of the Houston Rockets’ game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He went up for his shot but had it blocked and was ticked off about the lack of a foul call. So he bounced the ball down, but it came back and hit him right in the face.
Josh Hart’s reaction was too funny:
Harden was having yet another poor shooting night coming off Thursday’s home loss to the Bucks in the team’s opener. At least he has the beard to cushion those tough blows.
