I was assigned again for ABS-CBN Sports to cover the presscon and the event of James Harden. After registration, we were given an Adidas James Harden shirt and also food were served before the press conference.

We waited a bit as James Harden got stucked in traffic but all is well as he arrived and answered the question from the media.

The reigning NBA MVP was also asked what he think is his impact on the game of basketball and he said his step back move.
