James Harden Still Dominating the NBA at 36!
Thought James Harden was done? Think again! The 36-year-old just signed a new two-year deal with the Los Angeles Clippers worth nearly 35 million euros per season! Yes, you read that right — Harden still has the skills and the cash to be one of the highest-paid players in the league.
Harden’s Star-Studded Career
Harden isn’t just any player. He’s an MVP of the regular season, an 11-time All-Star, 6-time first-team selection, and a three-time NBA scoring leader. Plus, he’s an Olympic gold medalist from London and a World Champion from Spain. No wonder the Clippers want to keep him alongside Kawhi Leonard and Croatian center Ivica Zubac.
Deandre Ayton and Portland Trail Blazers Part Ways
While Harden signs new contracts, Deandre Ayton, the first pick in the NBA draft, became a free agent after the Portland Trail Blazers parted ways with him. Ayton has played seven years in the NBA, averaging 16.4 points and 10.5 rebounds per game, with his best season being his second with the Phoenix Suns, averaging 18.2 points and 11.5 rebounds per game.
Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves Make Moves
Jabari Smith signed a five-year extension with the Houston Rockets, while Julius Randle extended his contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves for three years, earning around 28 million euros annually.
What Does This Mean for the NBA?
The NBA is still full of surprises! Harden, despite his age, remains one of the key players on the court. Young players like Ayton are seeking new opportunities, while teams fight for the best rosters and the future of the league.
Is Harden Still the Best Choice for the Clippers?
