James Harden Once Described His Frustration While Dating Khloe Kardashian: “It Was Just Too Much. There Was Just a Lot of Nonsense, Just Saying My Name for No Reason”

James Harden was in a relationship with the American model, Khloe Kardashian, but it did not last more than eight months. He met Khloe while she was experiencing a roller-coaster married relation with Lamar Odom.

Engaging with a TV personality like Khloe, Hardens’ status and updates were all over the daily news media. And this was not so familiar, which made him take a step back.

Several instances not only created a buzz among the media but also among the fans of both James and Khloe.

The Brooklyn Nets point guard illustrates how the frequent coverages in the tabloids distracted his attention towards the game. And the needless things from the media channeled towards his teammates.

“It was just too much. There was just a lot of nonsense, just saying my name for no reason. It was a learning experience, for sure. We all go through those”, says Harden.

James Harden Gets Back His Focus

Harden realized that their relationship has been widely known among the NBA audience.

“I don’t like all the attention,” Harden said. “I feel like it was for no reason. I wasn’t getting anything out of it except my name out there and my face out there, and I don’t need that.”

Khloe Kardashian featured with her family in the reality television series Keeping Up with the Kardashians is a well-known TV personality. To that point, the media coverage is always to the mark with high-profile celebrities and families.

Whereas Khloe moved on to finding her best of the relationships, James Harden turned all his focus to his NBA career. He has some exquisite stats in the regular seasons of his NBA career after that. This season, he is averaging 24.6 points and 10.9 assists per game.
