James Harden to make 76ers debut vs. Timberwolves next week
Fans look over the jerseys of newly acquired Philadelphia 76ers’ James Harden before a game last week. Harden is scheduled to make his 76ers debut against the Wolves at Target Center on Feb. 25.CAMDEN, N.J. — James Harden has an MVP and several scoring titles on his mantle — and now he's ready to add a championship trophy.
Harden was introduced by the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday following last week's blockbuster trade that sent disgruntled guard Ben Simmons to the Brooklyn Nets.
Asked if his new team can win the NBA title, Harden put up the shot all Sixers fans wanted to hear.
"Hell yeah," he deadpanned. "My job is to help the team win a championship."
