What did Tracy McGrady say about James Harden’s trade request?

During a recent interview with GQ, Tracy McGrady discussed a variety of topics. One of his answers was related to James Harden. He said, ‘I don’t understand for the life of me what James Harden is doing. He’s demanded a trade away from the reigning MVP! James has probably played with more Hall of Famers than anybody in the league, and he doesn’t have a ring to show for it.’

McGrady pointed out how Harden has wasted the opportunity to win a ring after playing with so many top-notch players. He added, ‘I don’t know what he’s looking for. Maybe there’s some internal stuff going on that we don’t know about. Because it doesn’t make any sense for me to leave the MVP, and the Eastern Conference, where you have a shot to at least play for a championship. It’s got to be something deeper than what we know.’

James Harden has been playing for the Philadelphia 76ers since 2022 where he has played alongside players like Joel Embiid who is considered one of the best forwards in the league.
