Le Saviez-vous ?
Harden's step-back three-pointer has been measured at releasing from 28+ feet — well beyond the three-point arc — making it genuinely unguardable even when defenders play tight coverage.
He is one of only seven players in NBA history to average 36+ points per game for a season, joining Wilt Chamberlain (multiple seasons) in a very exclusive statistical company.
Harden grew up in the same LA neighborhoods as future NBA players including DeMar DeRozan and Brandon Jennings, part of a remarkable generation of LA basketball talent.
His beard has become one of the most recognizable in professional sports — he has declined offers reportedly exceeding $1 million to shave it for commercial campaigns.

James Harden spent eight seasons as the face of the Houston Rockets — winning an MVP, eight All-Star selections, and transforming the franchise into a perennial contender. When his playing days end, the case for #13 hanging in the Toyota Center rafters will be one of the strongest in Rockets history.
Traded to the Clippers for James Harden, Garland has done something unexpected: made Los Angeles's offense elite by doing less. A breakdown of the playmaking precision that makes him one of basketball's most efficient point guards.
