It is no secret that the Miami Heat was interested in disgruntled superstar James Harden before he was sent to the Brooklyn Nets.
Heat legend Udonis Haslem, who recently speculated on Harden’s potential in Miami, showed love for the sniper after the Heat’s defeat to the Nets on Saturday.
Harden, 31, was recently traded to the Houston Rockets’ Nets in a massive exchange of four teams.
Although Harden forced him out of Houston, he ended up in a better position to help him fight for a title. He is partnered with champions Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant in Brooklyn.
Haslem, 40, is not the only figure in the Heat to publicly show some love for Harden. Heat icon Dwyane Wade portrayed a lot of support and encouragement for the 2018 MVP.
On Saturday, the shorthanded Heat dropped to the Nets by a score of 128-124.
Heat All-Star Adebayo shone with 41 points, nine assists and five hits in 38 minutes of action. Harden had 12 points, 11 assists and seven rebounds.
The Heat and the networks fight again on Monday.
