SOURCE SPORTS: James Harden Returns to Clippers on Two-Year, $70M Deal
Written by on July 1, 2024
NBA free agency is in full swing, and James Harden has decided to stay with the Los Angeles Clippers, signing a two-year deal worth $70 million.
This announcement comes shortly after teammate Paul George chose to opt out of his contract to explore free agency, landing with the Philadelphia 76ers. In response, the Clippers have been focused on retaining their star players and re-signing point guard Russell Westbrook to maintain their competitive edge.
“We think James has been terrific for us when we obtained him five games into the season,” said Lawrence Frank, the Clippers president of basketball operations, in a statement. “Thought he had a terrific season. … He’s been great in terms of even the offseason, coming in, working out, coming in two-a-days, getting extra work in.”
