0 James Harden, a seasoned 34-year-old guard, has recently made a significant return to the Clippers by signing a lucrative 2-year, $70 million deal, which includes a player option for the final year of his contract.
Known for his remarkable skills as a shooting guard, Harden achieved an impressive 16.6 PPG, 8.5 APG, and 5.1 RPG in the last season, showcasing his enduring excellence on the court. Throughout his career, he has maintained remarkable averages of 24.1 PPG, 5.6 RPG, and 7.1 APG, solidifying his status as one of the league’s top performers.
Harden’s prowess on the court has earned him numerous accolades, including being honored with the MVP award in 2018 when he dominated with an average of 36.1 PPG. Additionally, he has achieved the remarkable feat of averaging 10 or more APG in four seasons and has led the league in scoring three times and assists twice.
Notably, he has been selected to the All-NBA team an impressive seven times, with six of those selections being All-NBA 1st team selections. His remarkable performance has also earned him ten All-Star selections, further solidifying his legacy in the sport.
With the departure of Paul George to the Philadelphia 76ers in free agency, Harden is expected to take on a more permanent role as the team’s shooting guard, creating space for Russell Westbrook to assume the starting point guard position, transitioning from his previous role as a 6th man.
This strategic shift in positions is anticipated to further enhance the team’s lineup and performance for the upcoming season.
