Video: NBA Investigating James Harden for Attending Christmas Party

If you thought the James Harden headlines would slow down, you were wrong. Reports have surfaced the NBA is investigating a video showing Harden at a strip club and the league is working hard to piece together when exactly the video took place.

Harden was seen maskless in the video which would violate the league's safety protocols around the COVID-19 virus. This would make Harden ineligible to play in the team's season opener.

Here's more from the NY Post's report:

Video circulated Tuesday of the Rockets star at a strip club Christmas party without a mask on, and ESPN.com reported Wednesday morning that the NBA is investigating the incident as a potential violation of the league’s COVID protocols. If it is determined that the video is recent, Harden’s availability for Wednesday night’s season opener against the Thunder would be in question.

If it's not Harden's strip club antics, it's stories of him throwing basketballs at teammates in practice. Needless to say, Harden has become the punchline of the NBA and is doing whatever he can to get out of Houston. 

One lap dance at a time.
