Nets star James Harden will not play in Game 3 against Bucks

The Brooklyn Nets will not have James Harden for their Game 3 matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday.

Harden, 31, experienced a hamstring injury in the opening minute of Game 1. He missed Game 2 due to the injury.

Despite Harden's absence, the Nets have dominated the Bucks in the first two games. Brooklyn won Game 1 115-107, and took Game 2 125-86.
