James Harden traded to LA Clippers in blockbuster deal
Posted : 31 October 2023
James Harden's trade request was finally granted as he made a blockbuster move from the Philadelphia 76ers to the LA Clippers. The former MVP had been seeking a trade since June, and despite prolonged discussions, the deal was completed only recently. Harden now joins the Clippers, reuniting with former teammate Russell Westbrook and the All-Star frontcourt duo of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.
In exchange for Harden, the 76ers receive Marcus Morris, Robert Covington, Nic Batum, KJ Martin, multiple draft picks, and plan to waive Danny Green to comply with the salary cap. Harden's arrival in Los Angeles adds firepower to a Clippers team aiming to make a deeper playoff run, having faced early exits in recent years.
However, some critics question the deal's long-term benefits for the Clippers due to Harden's contractual situation, and they emphasize the need for accountability to the fanbase. Harden's departure from Philadelphia comes after a tumultuous period of trade requests, and it remains to be seen how his future unfolds with the Clippers.
