"No, dealing with what?" Harden told the media as he was asked about his rumored hand injury in the aftermath of the Cavs' 116-109 Game 3 victory in the second round against the Detroit Pistons.

As a reporter said that he had ice in his hand previously, the star guard said with a chuckle: "Just a little older, so I’ve got to make sure I can stay younger.”

Harden woke up and redeemed himself to will the Cavs' Game 3 win, finishing with 19 points and seven assists in 40 minutes.

With the Cavs facing a nail-biting endgame, he owned the moment and took it over, scoring seven consecutive points, which included a clutch three with 25.9 seconds left for Cleveland's 113-109 lead.
