On June 22, according to the latest reports from the American media, Harden, a Clippers player facing a contract extension this summer, is likely to get a three-year $90 million contract, and the contract period is the same as that of the team's boss Kawaii Leonard.

In the 2023-24 season, Harden played in 72 regular season games for the Clippers, averaging 34.3 minutes per game, scoring 16.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 8.5 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.8 blocks.

In the playoffs, Harden played in 6 games, averaging 40.3 minutes per game, and could score 21.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.

For the 2023-24 season, Harden's salary is $35.68 million, and his contract with the Clippers expires this summer.

前灰熊高管、The Athletic资深专家John Hollinger撰文，专门预测了哈登的新合同年限与金额。

Harden's BORD$ (Big Old Rating Dollars) for the 2024-25 season is at $48522327, which may seem a bit overstated. Harden is still a great player, but he will turn 35 by August, and his style of play doesn't fit all teams. The key to Harden's contract extension is the number of years, and he has shown signs of declining form over the past two seasons, and in terms of his level of discipline, he is not good at maintaining good physical condition.

On the other hand, Harden scored 33 points in a playoff win over the Mavericks and maintained a true shooting percentage of 61.6% throughout the series. The Clippers were eliminated 4-2 in the first round by the Mavericks, and Harden struggled in the final two games, hitting just seven of his 28 shots, but with Carney Jr. out injured, we can't blame the Clippers for all of their outings. If Harden leaves, the Clippers can't find a replacement for him.

John Hollinger said that considering that the card has three years left on his contract, Harden's contract should also be a three-year contract and less than $48.52 million, and the Clippers are likely to offer him a three-year, $90 million to $100 million contract.

In this regard, netizens have said, "Now Harden is in a high position, and Harden is unwilling, it depends on how the agent operates."

"The size of Harden's contract depends on how much the Clippers are willing to risk, or rather the Clippers have to accept that risk."

"I like Harden very much, but now Harden has degraded too much, how wonderful it would be if he didn't leave the Rockets, but unfortunately there is no if"

"Isn't it a single-handedly organization of 40 million?"

"The Clippers have one less No. 4 in the Gaford or Raptors era of Serge Ibaka, and they can't always let Capepper defend the four."

"My personal prediction is that the final contract will be about 3 years, with an average salary of about 3500-4000W."

"The average salary is about 3500w, Harden is definitely willing to continue, the first two years have been reduced by 1000w➕, do you think he cares about money, just don't be too low, after all, the 75 MVP ➕➕ scoring king ➕ and assist king ➕ are the best sixth man. How much to save face, stable output under the condition of physical strength, organization is also indispensable for the Clippers."
