Reigning Eastern Conference Player of the Month, James Harden, underwent an MRI on Tuesday and the result revealed that he has a right hamstring sprain and is expected to miss a minimum of ten days because of it.
Harden felt pain in this same hamstring before suiting up on Monday night against the New York Knicks; however, he felt good to go. He re-aggravated the same hamstring in the first quarter and took the proper precautions to not continue to play.
James Harden is averaging 25.4 PPG, 11 APG, 8.7 RPG. He is also averaging one of the most minutes in the league at 37.3 MPG despite exiting the game early against the Knicks which counted towards his stats still.
James Harden underwent an MRI today that revealed a right hamstring strain, the Nets say. He will be re evaluated in ten days.
