Chris Paul and James Harden’s first performance together was nothing short of box office! Harden finished with 27 points, 12 rebounds, and 6 assists while Chris Paul shook off a slow start to finish with 13 points and 10 assists. The chemistry seemed to develop right before the audience’s eyes throughout the game as both slowly began to feed off of each other.
Paul & Harden’s LAUNFD (pronounced “LA Unified) pulled out the 83-81 win over a Hometown Favorites team that featured NBA players Jordan Bell, Delon Wright, and Tim Hardaway Jr. It’s just one game, a pro-am game at that, but one thing is for sure, the Rockets will most definitely be a fun team to watch this year.
