The Sixers’ preseason is officially underway, though there’s been no shortage of James Harden rumors and reports. The latest update comes from ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, who reported the latest on the situation on NBA Countdown.
Woj reported that the Clippers would prefer to acquire Harden “sooner rather than later.” Harden would be a major addition and big piece, so it makes sense why the Clippers would want a full year to develop chemistry. Woj added that the Clippers don’t want to increase their existing offer, as they believe they’re the only team bidding for Harden.
