James Harden is headed to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Los Angeles Clippers have agreed to send the 11-time All-Star back to the Eastern Conference during his highest-scoring season in six years. That’s according to a person with knowledge of the agreement who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Tuesday night because the NBA had not approved the trade. Harden is averaging 25.4 points this season, his most since averaging 34.3 points in 2019-20. He’s been a huge part of the Clippers’ resurgence after a 6-21 start. Garland is a two-time All-Star who’s averaging 18 points this season.
