The Los Angeles Clippers secured a thrilling 126-122 victory over the Denver Nuggets at the Intuit Dome. Star player James Harden and forward Norman Powell both delivered outstanding performances that greatly contributed to the Clippers’ impressive win. However, it was Harden who truly stole the spotlight in the game’s final moments, keeping fans on the edge of their seats.
In the final minutes of the game, Harden drove toward the basket, but Nuggets forward Peyton Watson positioned himself to defend against the shot. However, Harden skillfully stepped back and successfully made the basket. After the shot, he celebrated with his famous “Stirring the Pot” gesture. When asked about his signature move in a post-game interview, he provided a hilarious response.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about it. Nope, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Harden said in a post-game press conference.
