James Harden’s new contract with the Philadelphia 76ers is team-friendly to say the least. However, some within the NBA reportedly believe the organization intends to make it up to him later.
Harden essentially took a $15 million pay cut by opting out of his contract and re-signing with Philadelphia for two years and $68.6 million. This has led to some speculation around the league, according to NBA reporter Marc Stein, that Harden and 76ers GM Daryl Morey made an informal agreement about a new contract next offseason.
