According to a piece from Kelly Iko and Sam Amick, the Houston Rockets are expected to pursue guard James Harden this offseason.
The writers explore the close bond Harden had with many in the Rockets organization, including owner Tilman Fertitta.
“You’re always welcome back here,” Harden reportedly told Fertitta in so many words during a goodbye phone call between the two.
“From an emotional standpoint, sources with knowledge of his thinking continue to maintain that while Harden’s head and focus are on winning a championship with the 76ers, his heart will always be in Houston,” writes Amick & Iko. “It’s a comfort zone, his safe space.”
