Oklahoma City Thunder guard Jalen Williams received a special message from Cleveland Cavaliers star James Harden, according to a report published Friday. The interaction comes as both players navigate the 2026-27 NBA season with their respective teams.
Harden, now with Cleveland, helped the Cavaliers secure a 127-125 overtime victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on October 26 at Rocket Arena. The veteran guard's move to Cleveland marks a new chapter following previous stops with Houston, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles.
Williams, entering his third season with Oklahoma City, has emerged as a key contributor for the Thunder alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. The 2022 first-round pick continues to develop into a versatile two-way wing for a team with playoff aspirations in the Western Conference.
Details of the message between the two players were not disclosed in the initial report.
