Philadelphia 76ers trade James Harden to Los Angeles Clippers

 The Philadelphia 76ers traded James Harden to the Los Angeles Clippers in a sensational deal that sent the NBA world into a frenzy.


The 76ers will receive Marcus Morris Sr, Nicolas Batum, Robert Covington, Kenyon Martin Jr, an unprotected 2028 first-round pick, a future first-round pick from a third team, two second-round picks, and a pick swap for Harden, PJ Tucker, and Filip Petrusev.


The trade was a major move for both teams. After just one season, the 76ers essentially gave up on Harden, while the Clippers added a third All-Star in addition to Kohwai Leonard and Paul George.

The trade also has implications for Joel Embiid. Embiid was reportedly not happy with Harden's playoff performance last season, and there has been speculation that he may demand a trade if the 76ers are not competitive this season.
