James Harden set to join 76ers’ training camp

James Harden is expected to show up for Philadelphia 76ers training camp at Colorado State later on Wednesday, reports say.

Harden was enmeshed in huge transfer saga over the summer as he demanded a trade out of 76ers, which was not given to him and as a result he lashed out at president Daryl Morey, calling him a “liar” back in August.

Harden further elaborated that he will not participate in any franchise he(Morey) is part of.

The 34-year-old missed the team’s pre-season media day as he is reportedly upset for not being allowed a deal to the Clippers. The two clubs have allegedly negotiated between each other, but apparently have not been able to reach an agreement.

It is still unclear how Harden’s teammates welcome him on his return given all the drama and his firm stamp that he doesn’t have interest to play for the organization.
