James Harden joins the Philadelphia 76ers

James Harden undoubtedly had the best part of his career with the Houston Rockets. After failing to win an NBA title with the team and falling out with the front office, Harden forced his way to the Brooklyn Nets.

The move paired him with the likes of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. Despite joining the Nets, many reports had claimed that the Philadelphia 76ers were always the first destination in Harden’s mind.

With the trade deadline approaching, the move linking him to Philadelphia became even more evident. With Harden joining the 76ers, the Brooklyn Nets received a package involving Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond, and two first-round draft picks. (Source: ESPN)

With this move, the Philadelphia 76ers finally found a solution to the Ben Simmons problem. Ever since the playoff loss against the Atlanta Hawks, Simmons has been on a decline.

He has refused to play for the team citing mental health reasons. The 76ers have tried their level best to trade the Australian but a deal has never materialized. Finally, he ended up joining the Nets and pairs with Durant and Irving. Simmons is expected to make his debut for the Nets after the All-Star weekend.
