There’s apparently little the Houston Rockets can do to appeal to James Harden, who is reportedly now fully committed to being traded.
Harden, who is awaiting his sixth consecutive negative COVID-19 test to join his team on Monday, has had “no change” of heart despite the addition of John Wall – an acquisition that he reportedly pushed for, ESPN reported, citing sources.
Wall has expressed his interest in forming a partnership with Harden but the feeling isn’t mutual as sources say the eight-time NBA All-Star is committed to having a fresh start somewhere else, noting that it’s nothing personal with Wall.
