Harden wants to win

Post by Donn Beach » Wed Jul 20, 2022 3:00 am

Thought that was interesting, turning down $47.4 mil, will take whatever is left?
. Laser-focused on winning his first championship, former NBA MVP James Harden is open to taking a big pay cut so the Philadelphia 76ers can complete their roster for 2022-2023
Holding tight and not holding out, James Harden plans to accept whatever salary the Philadelphia 76ers can afford when team president Daryl Morey deems his roster complete.

Harden opted out of the final year of his contract, declining $47.4 million in salary for 2022-2023 in a decision he said came down to one thing: winning a championship.

“I had conversations with Daryl, and it was explained how we could get better and what the market value was for certain players. I told Daryl to improve the roster, sign who we needed to sign and give me whatever is left over,” Harden told Yahoo Sports.

“This is how bad I want to win. I want to compete for a championship. That’s all that matters to me at this stage. I’m willing to take less to put us in position to accomplish that.

He definitely doesn't need $47M to maintain that homeless person look.
