NBA stars continue to give up the World Basketball Championship, which will be launched in China in late August. The last to announce that he will remain in the United States is James Harden, who has announced that he prefers to continue to prepare for the challenging season with Houston and his new teammate Russell Westbrook than to fight for another international title.

Harden is the second big American star to announce his departure this week after Anthony Davies, another one facing a significant change in the upcoming NBA season, has decided to take the summertime and focus on this mission. Ben Simmons recently announced that he would not play with the Australian team.

Kyle Laurie, who underwent thumb surgery this week, hopes to play. In any case, even in the absence of Harden, the United States has no shortage of quality guards and Damien Lillard, Bradley Bill and Kamba Walker are in the squad right now.

Harden, meanwhile, is doing a bit of off-paring stuff, and he has bought a small part of the investment group that owns the Houston football teams, the Dynamo of the MLS and the Dash of the women's league, as well as the local stadium. Harden reportedly bought five percent of the shares, worth nearly $ 25 million.

"I am very excited about the opportunity to join the team and proud to be part of a club with a great history and a great future," said Harden. "Houston is my home now and I think it's a way to invest in my city and develop my business side at the same time." Football, especially the MLS, has grown tremendously in our country since I was born and I've been a fan of the game for a few years. It's a very easy decision for me. "
