Nearly three weeks after getting traded to the Philadelphia 76ers, James Harden will make his home debut tonight, with everybody hyped about what the former NBA MVP can do alongside Joel Embiid at Wells Fargo Center.
After another tumultuous exit from his prior team, Harden is looking in great spirits with Embiid, creating a terrific duo in just a couple of games. The Beard has shown his quality in road games, but it’s time for his fans to embrace him, as he makes his official debut in the City of Brotherly Love.
One Sixers legend will be watching the match tonight, and he already sent a big message to the shooting guard. Allen Iverson praised Philly fans, welcoming James Harden to his house.

The Sixers will receive the New York Knicks, the team they faced on Sunday, and made things hard for them. Their star duo will be ready to dominate Tom Thibodeau’s defense, and fans in Philly will be set to watch their new stars going at it.
Philadelphia made a very smart move when they decided to trade for Harden. Even though many people think the Nets won the exchange, Harden is a great addition to the Sixers. This will be the beginning of many magical nights for the Sixers, who are considered championship favorites once again.
