James Harden (injury recovery) will not suit up for 76ers Monday

Philadelphia 76ers starter James Harden (injury recovery) will not play in Monday's game against the Miami Heat.

What It Means:

Harden will sit out tonight's game against the Heat as the 76ers head into the second leg of their back-to-back. The veteran has played over 35 minutes in all but one of his games with Philadelphia so far this season, so it is not surprising that the team has decided to rest him tonight.

Harden's play has remained strong all season long, and has even taken an arguable step forward since joining the 76ers. He's averaging 22.4 points, 7 rebounds, and 10.5 assists per game with his new team, and his turnovers per game have dropped from 4.8 with the Brooklyn Nets, to 3.4 with Philly. Furkan Korkmaz started for the team the last time Harden sat out.
