Watch: James Harden dunks on JaVale McGee, flexes

James Harden made a statement early in the Houston Rockets’ game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night.

Harden blew past Lonzo Ball around the 3-point line and then drove to the hoop for a huge dunk on JaVale McGee:

Harden knew he had delivered a big play because he even flexed afterwards.

Houston is only 12-14 on the season and needs to start turning things around. Maybe plays like that will help them build momentum.
