Earlier this week (Feb. 3), James Harden personally took out time in his busy schedule to spend some quality time with Devyn Mosley, an 18-year-old from Pennsylvania who is currently battling Hodkin’s Lymphoma. Harden and the Rockets organization invited Mosley and his family to attend a private practice session with Harden and his teammates as well as a Houston Rockets home game at the Toyota Center against the Charlotte Hornets.
Devyn’s dream to meet Harden conducted in partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation went above and beyond his goal, as he was able to witness his all-time favorite NBA player live and in action earlier this week. James Harden led the Rockets to a 125-110 win over the Charlotte Hornets with a total of 40 points on 11-26 from the field while racking up 12 assists and nine rebounds.
