James Harden Makes Case for 11th NBA All-Star Appearance

LA Clippers guard James Harden is already one of the most individually accomplished players in the NBA. With 10 All-Star selections, seven All-NBA teams, three scoring titles, two assist titles, and a league MVP award, Harden is an undisputed first ballot Hall of Famer.

As he attempts to add an NBA championship to his extensive list of accomplishments, Harden also wants to be named a 2025 All-Star. Speaking after Thursday’s win over the Washington Wizards, a game in which he passed Wilt Chamberlain for 8th all-time in triple-doubles, Harden was asked about a potential 11th All-Star selection.

“It means a lot,” Harden said. “Just the work that I’ve put in individually and as a team. The accomplishments and my numbers is good enough. I’ve been on the other side where I led the league in assists and didn’t make it. So it would be an honor to me. I would love be a part of the team.”
