Multiple NBA teams are monitoring the trade availability of James Harden ahead of the February 5th deadline, as reported by Marc Stein. Despite Harden’s All-Star level performance, the Los Angeles Clippers hold a disappointing 6-20 record this season. Harden has a contract worth $39.1 million this season and a $42.3 million player option for 2026-27, making him an attractive short-term option for teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Clippers owe significant future draft picks to the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Philadelphia 76ers.
