James Harden of the Philadelphia 76ers has recently been in the news once again, and this time it is because he was seen dumping a cake into the ocean while celebrating his birthday on a yacht.
The 76ers superstar who is widely regarded as one of the most prolific scorers in the game right now turned 33 last week and took to a yacht to celebrate the occasion.
However, what grabbed the most eyeballs in the event was when he chucked his birthday cake into the ocean.
The clip caused plenty of uproar as Harden was deemed to have been polluting the ocean for no reason, but Jalen Rose and David Jacoby seemed to disagree with the masses on their NBA talk show as according to them it was not a real cake that Harden dumped into the ocean.
Speaking on their talk show known as “Jalen and Jacoby”, they came to Harden’s defense by saying that one “can not just pick up a cake like that” as it would crumble at the slightest touch and instead, it must have been a cardboard replica of a cake that Harden chucked into the ocean.
In order to add to Harden’s defense, Jalen said he has a conspiracy theory about the viral clip.
According to the former NBA player and current analyst, most people today simply go by the headlines instead of reading the full body of news and hence the headline of Harden throwing a cake into the ocean might serve as good reading for the 76ers fans who want him in top shape.
Approaching the new season where Harden has already taken a pay cut in order to help the 76ers bring in top players to mount a title challenge, 76ers supporters would love to see the bearded maverick maintain the diet he has kept up with so far in order to get in the best shape of his life.
