Ouch, not a good look. The fact that the 76ers are keeping him from playing means that either they think that Harden is too out of shape to play (and he is going to be a net negative player or will hurt his trade value) or they think that they are on the cusp of a trade and don’t want him to suffer an injury.
The fact that they are not even bringing him on the trip speaks to the fact that they don’t care about chemistry between Harden and the rest of the team. They could have brought him along and had him sit in a suit.
Also, the league rules state that Harden had to travel with the team. Because something about Star player needing to be at every game just to wave at fans and what not. So someones getting fined due this lol
