The NBA may become involved in the ongoing tension between the Philadelphia 76ers and All-Star point guard James Harden. Harden has expressed his desire to part ways with the team and its president of basketball operations, Daryl Morey, creating a potential situation for league intervention.

According to Sports Illustrated, NBA insider Marc Stein reports, “There are now calls for the league to re-investigate Philly again to try to assess what Morey allegedly lied to Harden about.

“If Harden is suggesting that the Sixers made some sort of contractual promise last summer – which the team has adamantly denied and maintains it was already cleared of doing – they will certainly be subject to league discipline.”
