According to previous famous reporter Shams, Harden rejected the player option worth $36.35 million in the 25-26 season, and signed a two-year, $81.5 million contract renewal with the Clippers, successfully synchronizing with the contract years of Xiaoka.

The famous reporter of the US media "HoopsHype" Michael Scotto followed up and revealed that Harden's contract was worth $39.2 million in the first year and the second year was a partially guaranteed player option, of which the guaranteed amount was only $13.3 million.

After completing this contract, Clippers President Lawrence Frank also publicly talked about this contract renewal in an interview, bluntly saying that this is a reward and reward to Harden.

He has been improving his level and helping his teammates become better. Therefore, this contract is a reward and reward for him, and he hopes to continue to build a team around him in the future," Frank said.

Finally, the Clippers officially announced that they had signed a new player named Daluo for 18 million in two years. The second year was the team option. He is also the biggest reinforcement operation made by the Clippers since the offseason.

After joining the Clippers, Daluo will play the role of Zubac as a substitute, providing the diversity of the lineup needed by the Clippers.

President Frank also gave a high evaluation of Daluo's joining, bluntly saying that he is a top rim protector and long-range shooter, or a champion center, which is a huge lineup upgrade for the Clippers.

Potential starters: Harden, Dunn, Powell, Kat Jr. and Zubac.

Substitutes: Jones Jr., Batum, Dalow, Bogdan, Kobe Brown, Jordan Miller and Christie;
