It's back to school time for everyone - including James Harden.

The Houston Rockets and former Arizona State guard visited his college court Saturday.

Here he is posing with new Sun Devils head coach Bobby Hurley, formerly of Buffalo, and Hurley's son.

While Harden declared for the 2009 NBA Draft, his last season in Tempe is special to his former team. That season also happens to be the last time the Sun Devils won a game in the NCAA tournament, falling in the Round of 32 to Syracuse.

Maybe "The Beard" will bring Arizona State some luck.
