“I was actually at dinner with my family, just enjoying dinner, nice and quiet. Then, I got a text from my General Manager, Sam Presti. I called him and he told me that he loved me and that things just didn’t work out and that I was going to be coming to Houston. I was kinda stunned, but as I thought about it, I think it could be a good thing for me. [The last 24 hours] have been a whirlwind. Having to pack my things and get as much as possible and come to Houston, getting physicals and meeting the team and the front office here, it’s been great…but like I said, I’m kinda lost for words. Obviously with the Thunder…we had something special, but at the end of the day it is a business. I’m looking forward to being in Houston.” – James Harden
