James Harden is adamant that at 35 years old, he is still capable of leading the Los Angeles Clippers, as reported by Janis Carr of The Orange County Register.
Although Harden is currently averaging a career-high 6.2 turnovers per game, he attributes this statistic to a high usage rate rather than any signs of fatigue.
“You seen the usage rate, it’s going to happen. Like turnovers are going to happen,” he explained to reporters. “I try to, but some of the passes that I thread, a lot of them are successful and some of ’em aren’t. So just trying to find a balance of when to throw and when not to.”
Harden’s perspective highlights the challenges that come with taking on a significant playmaking role, where the pressure to create opportunities can lead to mistakes.
Despite the increased turnovers, he remains focused on finding the right timing for his passes and maintaining his effectiveness on the court.
