We can all agree that sports are pretty popular. But do you believe that athletes who are enraged may engage in fights? Recently, renowned basketball player James Hardin and a friend were discovered fighting in Las Vegas.

James Harden and a man got into a violent argument outside of the Flamingo on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada, as reported by TMZ. Harden “taped” the man’s chest in the intense heat of that moment before “smacking” him in his face. This took place just two days after the Sixers easily defeated the Brooklyn Nets in the opening round.

The conflict’s origin was not made apparent, but at a minimum, it did not go out of hand to the point where calling the police was necessary. The man is a member of Harden’s entourage, and according to the portal, the two continued their day as if nothing had happened. As per the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department spokesperson,

“We have had no incidents involving James Harden reported to the LVMPD.”

No one was summoned to the site, according to a representative for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, and “no incidents involving James Harden have been reported to the LVMPD.” However, witnesses reportedly told the portal that Harden and the man returned to the hotel after noticing onlookers in the area.

 

Philadelphia 76ers’ Last Game

On Monday at about 1:25 AM local time, the incident took place. The last time the Philadelphia 76ers played was on April 22, when they beat the Brooklyn Nets in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Playoffs to progress to the second round.

Harden averaged 36.1 minutes per game while participating in all four contests versus the Nets. He contributed 17 points and 11 assists in Game 4 to help the Sixers win a best-of-seven series for the first time since 1985.
