On the most recent episode of The Lowe Post podcast, ESPN’s Zach Lowe touched on the James Harden trade situation. Lowe said things with Harden’s trade request are at “a total stalemate”.
“There’s only really one team that he wants to go to, and that team is the Clippers,” Lowe said. “Their level of engagement here to me is unclear/not super enthusiastic.”
Lowe also said the chances of Harden returning to the Philadelphia 76ers seems unlikely as of now.
“I don’t know what to make of the possibility that Harden would ever go back to Philly. I continue to hear from people who would know that the bridge is burned,” Lowe said. “But that’s what people who would know would say on July 17, with two months or whatever before training camp.”
