As reported by ESPN, Harden is keen on joining the 76ers soon. As per sources, the managements are discussing potential deals, with Ben Simmons also in the fray. However, Harden is also apparently scared of facing public backlash over his potential move. After all, this will become the 2nd consecutive season where he will be shifting sides.

Due to his fears, Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the 10-time All-Star will not personally ask for a move. Instead, he will wait patiently for the two concerned sides to work things out. On Instagram, however, Durant has now made his intentions clear. According to a fresh report, the 2-time NBA champion has liked a post that talks about ‘The Beard’ wanting out of Brooklyn. In all likelihood, Durant is prepared for what’s next.
