The free-agent guard was released after police found an open firearm in his vehicle during a traffic stop.
James Harden was arrested in Houston on a misdemeanor gun charge after police discovered an open firearm in his vehicle's cupholder during a traffic stop. The 36-year-old free agent was subsequently released.
Harden, a 16-year NBA veteran, averaged 25.4 points, 8.1 assists, and 4.8 rebounds over 44 games last season. The arrest does not affect his free-agent status, though it may influence roster decisions by teams considering him ahead of the offseason.
