James Harden and the Philadelphia 76ers took on the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday at the Wells Fargo Center. Harden was up against his old team and he had something to prove to them. The Sixers looked to get a win over their Eastern Conference rivals.

But things went differently than the Sixers would have hoped for. They got blown out by Kevin Durant and the Nets in their own house. James Harden might have broken Reggie Miller’s record, but he did not have a great game. He scored only 11 points on 3-17 shooting and couldn’t get his teammates going either. This was an embarrassing defeat for the Sixers and James Harden. But the loss didn’t seem to affect James Harden, as he was seen partying the same day with Lil Baby and Travis Scott. Harden is known to be a close friend to the two stars and also known to be a party person.

The duo was seen having a few words. The Nets did not seem satisfied as they kept piling up on the Sixers. At one point, they even built it up to 36. The starters checked out after the third quarter as the Nets had put the Sixers away by then.
