The James Harden trade, which sent him to the Los Angeles Clippers from the Philadelphia 76ers for a collection of solid players and draft assets after a drawn-out standoff between the two clubs, has potential implications for the Boston Celtics and the rest of the league this season.
This move could make the Sixers a bigger threat in the NBA and potentially allow them to trade for another player like Zach LaVine or OG Anunoby should either be available. For the Celtics, it may mean facing a stronger 76ers squad and potentially needing to make changes to their own bench. The Celtics’ bench has not been performing well, and the addition of players like Robert Covington or Danny Green could provide a boost in terms of defense and three-point shooting. However, it is uncertain if any of these players will become available.
