Star James Harden is staying with the Clippers.
The Los Angeles Clippers are retaining free agent guard James Harden. They have agreed to a new contract with him. It's a two-year, $70 million deal. NBA insider Shams Charania was among the first to break the news.According to Charania, Harden will be getting a player option in year two of the deal. This is a big win for both sides, especially Harden as he can see how his time with the Clippers is next season.
Los Angeles believes that Leonard and Harden can be a championship-level duo if George were to depart. If George does stay, it creates a lethal big-three for Los Angeles to go forward with.Last season with the Clippers, Harden averaged 16.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 8.5 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game. He was a major reason why the Clippers found success this past season so the organization made sure to bring him back.
