James Harden helped to facilitate one of the best games of Joel Embiid’s career in a statement comeback win over the Nuggets on Saturday. In doing so, however, he got smacked in the face by the ball after bizarrely leaving the bench mid-play and running onto the court.

Boston would win in overtime, while Los Angeles was left to wonder why James didn’t get a chance to win the game at the free throw line.
Multiple Lakers publicly questioned the officiating after the game.
LeBron James had every reason to be upset during Saturday night’s game against the Celtics and the NBA agrees. A missed call at the end of regulation led the 38-year-old to lose his mind, which prompted Patrick Beverley to pick up one of the most unique, and funniest, technical fouls of all-time.
