The Los Angeles Clippers are “going to great lengths” to acquire James Harden from the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell Shams Charania and Sam Amick of The Athletic.
Harden reported to training camp with the Sixers on Tuesday and has participated in practice on Wednesday and Thursday without incident. Sources tell The Athletic that Harden is “taking part because he remains hopeful that a trade to the Clippers is still in the works and believes, for now, that it would be wise to not be a distraction.”
The Clippers are in communication with multiple teams about how to move pick swaps for additional draft capital in hopes of trading for Harden.
The Clippers offered the Sixers an unprotected first-round pick, a pick swap and matching salaries for Harden, sources tell The Athletic.
The Sixers are seeking Terance Mann and multiple first round picks from the Clippers in order to part with Harden.
