Daily News | Gear up for a complicated summer from the Sixers and James Harden | Sports Daily Newsletter
James Harden and the 76ers have some negotiating to do. Both sides will come into this summer with clear objectives. For Harden, the likely motivation is to opt in to his $47 million player option and lock up a long-term deal. For the Sixers, the goal is to get better without breaking the bank, which has not been a strong suit in recent years.
