Harden Questionable for Wednesday with Shoulder Soreness After Late Scratch

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to right shoulder soreness, potentially missing his second consecutive contest. He was a late scratch for Monday night's game, an absence that allowed rookie Kobe Sanders to step into the lineup and deliver a career-high 20 points and seven rebounds. If Harden is ruled out again, Sanders and Jordan Miller are candidates for increased minutes. Over his last five outings, Harden has averaged 24.2 points, 7.4 assists, and 3.0 rebounds in 34.4 minutes.
