James Harden is remaining a Los Angeles Clipper.
The 11-time All-Star will be signing a new two-year, $81.5 million contract with the Clippers after he declined his player option on Sunday, ESPN's Shams Charania reported. Harden's player option for the 2025-26 season was worth $36.35 million. It was fully expected for Harden to decline his player option. His new deal includes a player option in the second year and is partially guaranteed, Charania added.
