Rockets' James Harden fires back at Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo

James Harden fired back at the Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo, who made some jokes at the Rockets star's expense during the NBA All-Star Game draft earlier in the month.

In that draft, Antetokounmpo took Celtics point guard Kemba Walker over Harden because he said he wanted "somebody that's gonna pass the ball."

During an interview with ESPN's Rachel Nichols, which was released Friday, Harden didn't find the joke funny, especially since Harden ranks ninth in the league with 7.3 assists per game, while Walker is 37th with 5 per game.
