Khloé Kardashian's ex-beau, James Harden, is finding himself in quite the Texas pickle. The 41-year-old former NBA star, currently making hoops magic with the Cleveland Cavaliers, was recently nabbed in Texas on a misdemeanor charge. The reason? Allegedly packing a handgun in plain view inside his ride – a no-go in the Lone Star State if it's not holstered.

As the news breaks, the Cleveland Cavaliers are stepping in with a cautious approach. "The Cleveland Cavaliers are aware of the arrest of James Harden this morning and are in the process of gathering additional information," a team rep shared.

"We are in contact with James and his representation and will continue to monitor developments as they become available. At this time, we will have no further comment."
