According to the Sixers’ injury report, Harden is dealing with soreness in his left Achilles.
He was sidelined with left foot pain during Philadelphia’s March 7 victory over Minnesota. The next game he missed was the March 18 victory over the Pacers, due to his left foot injury.
Harden missed just two of the season’s first twenty games because of a strained right foot tendon, an injury that initially sidelined him for a month.
Harden reached 20 points only once in his last six contests, stumbling to a 34.9 percent field-goal percentage over that stretch while averaging just 15.8 points, albeit with 12.7 assists, 7.3 boards, 1.5 threes and 1.3 steals.
