## Resource

Cleveland just locked down James Harden with a three-year, $97M deal — a bold move to keep their star guard and build around Donovan Mitchell. Harden’s late-season impact was huge: 20+ points and 7 assists in 26 games, helping the Cavs reach the Eastern Conference Finals. Despite past playoff woes and defensive doubts, the team is betting on his scoring and playmaking to lead them to a title. With this extension, Cleveland’s championship window is now front and center — and if Harden delivers under pressure, this could be one of the smartest moves in franchise history.
