Former NBA star Tracy McGrady has shared his insights on the possibility of James Harden returning to the Houston Rockets. Despite the strong links between Harden and the Rockets, the former MVP opted to remain with the Philadelphia 76ers for the upcoming 2023-24 season, aiming to facilitate a trade to the Los Angeles Clippers.
In a recent interview with Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson on the Scoop B Radio Podcast, McGrady expressed skepticism about the notion of Harden returning to Houston. He stated, “I know James wants to win a championship; Coming to Houston is NOT winning a ‘chip. Coming to Houston will not win you a championship!”
McGrady’s opinion reflects concerns about the Rockets’ current competitive position and their ability to contend for an NBA championship.
While Harden’s presence would undoubtedly impact the team, McGrady’s emphasis on the need for a winning environment and a strong roster underscores the challenges that a player faces in pursuit of a championship title.
