More on this storyline
In terms of things that didn’t happen, however, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the most important one: A league source confirmed Monday morning that James Harden did NOT opt in to his deal before being traded to Philadelphia. (Originally reported by PhillyVoice’s Kyle Neubeck.) -via The Athletic / February 15, 2022
Shams Charania on James Harden: He was going to opt into that player option and the paperwork was filed, but they did not meet the buzzer for the opt in. -via Spotify / February 15, 2022
Kyle Neubeck: source familiar with the situation tells @thephillyvoice James Harden did not opt into the next year of his deal yesterday, as was reported elsewhere. Sixers and Harden are both confident and feeling good about where they stand long term, but an important detail nonetheless -via Twitter @KyleNeubeck / February 11, 2022
