James Harden has 2nd most points by an active player without a ring
Philadelphia 76ers star James Harden has done just about everything in his NBA career. He has won an MVP award and three scoring titles. He has produced countless dazzling performances and is almost assuredly on his way to the Hall of Fame.
The one thing missing on his resume is an NBA title. He came close with the Houston Rockets, whom he led to the Western Conference finals in 2015 and 2018. Both times they ran into the Golden State Warriors and came up short.
Now, with the Sixers, he is looking to team with Joel Embiid and lead Philadelphia to its first title since 1983.
Interstingly, Harden has the second-most points (23,477) among all active players without a ring. The only player with more is Carmelo Anthony (28,289).

Now that Harden has had a summer to rest his hamstring and bond with his teammates, The Beard is looking to lead Philadelphia on a title run in the 2022-23 season.
