Around 3:40 a.m., Harden was arrested in Harris County, Texas, for “unlawfully, intentionally and knowingly” carrying a handgun while in his vehicle, the document stated.<\/p>\n

Harden did not have the gun in its holster, and it was in plain view, according to the document.<\/p>\n

He has been charged with a misdemeanor and has since been released on bond.<\/p>\n

The arrest came just weeks after the Cavs’ season ended in a loss to the New York Knicks in the Eastern Conference finals.<\/p>\n

The guard was traded to the Cavs in early February from the Los Angeles Clippers in exchange for Darius Garland and a second-round pick.<\/p>\n
