James Harden made his debut last night for the Philadelphia Sixers. The NBA superstar from Brooklyn took only five minutes to score his first points in his new colors against the New York Knicks (123-108).
With 26 points, 9 rebounds and as many assists, James Harden does not go far from the triple-double. Above all, he will have shown on the floor a more than promising understanding with his new teammate, the Cameroonian Joel Embiid.
“It’s true that we understand each other well on the court. With James, we will gain experience. He has incredible qualities as a leader, he is on top. He scores more than the others. He is still improving our collective. It was incredible. You can already see that it works”
A reinforcement of weight therefore for the Sixers who rely on the talent ofEmbolite for too long. Still author against the Knicks of 26 points and 12 rebounds, the native of Yaoundé will now be able to share the spotlight with Harden but also his dream of winning the Eastern Conference.
