The franchise is said to have “regular conversations“With the Clippers, Harden’s desired location, but “No point of consensus materialized to reach an agreement.”
Harden arrived late to practice, practiced with the rest of the team, but then left camp for personal reasons.
The star has criticized the 76ers’ president of operations, Daryl Morey, repeatedly. In mid-August, Harden called it quits “liar” and said that “I would never be part of any organization I was in.” The NBA later fined him $100,000 for publicly demanding a transfer.
When Harden spoke to the media before the 2023-2024 season, he maintained that his relationship with Morey is irreparable. According to Wojnarowski, Harden has been frustrated for months about not being traded to the Clippers.
