How James Harden's off-court actions are part of a bigger plan

ROCKETS ROUNDTABLE PRESENTED BY TEXAS STAR GRILL SHOP

James Harden has been in the news recently for a lot of positive reasons.

Harden was captured on video giving $10,000 to a family in the Bahamas, and his impact in Houston has been fantastic too with him donating $240,000 to the city of Houston to upgrade outdoor basketball courts.

ESPN 97.5's John Granato, Lance Zierlein, and Raheel Ramzanali discuss Harden's philanthropic gestures, and debate if having an ulterior motive for these actions even matters. Rockets Roundtable is presented by Texas Star Grill Shop.
