A new city, a familiar command. James Harden arrived in Cleveland at the trade deadline and wasted no time conducting the Cavaliers' offense in his first home game on February 11, 2026. First, he got Justin Champagnie to lunge on a pump fake near the logo, then rose up from 30 feet and buried the triple as if the building had been his all along. From there, The Beard shifted into facilitator mode, whipping a bounce pass from the wing to a cutting Sam Merrill for a layup that split two defenders, followed by a behind-the-back bounce pass through traffic to Jaylon Tyson that only a handful of players on the planet would even attempt. The former MVP and 11-time All-Star finished with a double-double in Cleveland's 138-113 victory over Washington. · Feb 12, 2026
