Cleveland Cavaliers guard James Harden was arrested in Harris County, Texas, early Saturday morning. He was charged with a misdemeanor for unlawfully carrying weapons. This was first reported by TMZ.
According to Harris County’s records, Harden was arrested for “intentionally and knowingly” carrying a handgun in a motor vehicle owned by Harden and in “plain view.” The arrest occurred at 3:41 A.M. on Saturday, June 26. He was booked at 4:57 A.M. that same day.

Harden has been charged with a misdemeanor for unlawful carrying weapons. He has been released on bail, but needs to submit to the following requirements at this time:
Harden cannot possess firearms, ammunition, or other weapons.
He must submit to random urinalysis.
He is “prohibited from using, possessing, or consuming any alcohol, controlled substances, dangerous drug, or marijuana unless prescribed” by a doctor.
Harden is scheduled to appear in court on Monday, June 22nd.
This issue is likely to be resolved relatively quickly. Harden was only charged with a misdemeanor, which is not a serious charge.
The Cavs traded for Harden at the beginning of February. He has a player option for the 2026-27 season, but is expected to decline that option and seek a longer-term contract with the Cavs in the upcoming off-season.
