The NBA pre-season is officially underway and many stars have new homes.
In this game, Paul George and Carmelo Anthony relocated from the Eastern Conference to join MVP Russell Westbrook with the Oklahoma City Thunder, while Chris Paul moved from the City of Angels to H-town and is now teammates with James Harden.
Both the Houston Rockets and Thunder are teams to watch this season and this pre-season game is a preview of what we’ll see in the regular season with the new-look squads.
There were plenty of highlights in this one, considering Anthony dropped 19 points in his OKC debut. PG13 wasn’t too shabby either, contributing 15 points of his own. Westbrook did not play in this one, but it’s only a matter of time before this super team is on the court for the first time together.
On the other side of the ball, CP3 had 11 points and 7 assists in his Rockets debut, as the beard had a chill double-double, scoring 16 points and dishing out 10 assists.
