Clippers guard James Harden may be traded before the NBA’s deadline this week, with reports indicating advanced discussions involving a swap for Cavaliers guard Darius Garland. Despite contributing significantly to the Clippers’ recent success, Harden has missed the last two games for personal reasons. Clippers coach Tyronn Lue expressed desire to keep Harden for a playoff run, while teammate Kawhi Leonard and John Collins expressed surprise and disappointment at the trade rumors. Harden, an 11-time All-Star, signed a two-year, $81 million deal with the Clippers last offseason.
