The 22 teams are indulging in intense practice sessions ahead of the NBA restart. The players will be stepping on the court after a four-month plus break when the season resumes. Hence, certain players will be immensely focused on getting back to the top of their game and James Harden is one among them. And he doesn’t want his teammates to lose minute focus too!
Bleacher Report’s Taylor Rooks posted a video on twitter capturing a restless James Harden watching his teammate attend a presser. Apparently, the Rockets had to stop by and answer a few questions before they could enter practice.
Harden clearly wasn’t entertained by this and began demanding his teammate Austin Rivers to get done with his press conference soon. Harden can be visibly seen urging Rivers to come out of the video call and can be heard whispering, “We gotta practice.”

James Harden looks like he has immensely set his focus on playing ball and picking up his game right where he left off. ‘The Beard’ averaged a massive 34.4 points per game prior to the season’s suspension. If he carries the same form to the playoffs without letting it dip, the Rockets will certainly enjoy great success under Harden’s leadership.
