James Harden is expected to make his highly-anticipated debut for the Philadelphia 76ers (-2.5) on Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves .
Questions about his fit alongside MVP candidate Joel Embiid will finally start to get the answers fans have been craving since he was acquired in a trade deadline deal with the Brooklyn Nets.
Harden hasn’t played since Feb. 2, recovering from a hamstring injury suffered prior to the trade. He’s presumably fully healthy now but will have a little rust to knock off after three weeks on the sideline. Add to that, he’ll be adjusting to a new situation with new coaching and teammates in Philly, and trying to guess how he’ll play in this game isn’t easy.
