James Harden may no longer be with the Houston Rockets, but his number is set to live in the rafters at the Toyota Center forever.
The Rockets, owner Tilman Fertitta said on Tuesday, are set to retire Harden’s number later this season.
“James Harden will always be a Rocket,” Fertitta told the Houston Chronicle. “Of course, we will retire his jersey. He made my first three years of owning the franchise unforgettable. The success he brought this franchise over eight years and the memories he created for our fan base/community [are] truly remarkable.
