James Harden Added To Injury Report As Questionable Against Oklahoma City
2 days agoLos Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (groin) was added to the Clippers' injury report on Thursday afternoon ahead of their showdown in Oklahoma City with the Thunder. Harden has been carrying the Clippers without Kawhi Leonard (knee) still sidelined and is averaging 21.9 points, 7.8 assists, 6.1 rebounds, and 1.5 steals in 33.9 minutes per game. Harden has a team-high 31.6% usage rate, so if he's ruled out there will be a dramatic impact on the Clippers' offense. With Harden off the floor, Norman Powell gets a boost in usage of over five percentage points while Ivica Zubac and Kevin Porter Jr. also take on a larger workload. Harden has missed just one game all season, and Porter started in his place, logging 37 minutes and scoring 19 points while Bones Hyland played 28 minutes off the bench and finished with 22 points and four assists.
