BREAKING: James Harden's Final Injury Status For 76ers-Bulls Game
On Wednesday night, the Philadelphia 76ers will be in Illinois to face off with the Chicago Bulls at the United Center.
However, they will be without one of their best players for the game, as 2018 MVP James Harden has been ruled out.
Underdog NBA: "James Harden (Achilles) listed out Wednesday."
Harden is in the middle of another unbelievable season with averages of 21.4 points, 6.3 rebounds, 10.8 assists and 1.2 steals per contest.
The ten-time NBA All-Star is also shooting 44.1% from the field and 38.4% from the three-point range.
He is in his first full season with the 76ers after being traded in the middle of last year (via the Brooklyn Nets).
The 76ers are one of the best teams in the NBA and are the third seed in the Eastern Conference with a 48-23 record in 71 games.
They are 8-2 in their last ten games and 22-12 in the 34 games they have played on the road away from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
As for the Bulls, they are the tenth seed in the east, which is the final play-in tournament spot.
They are 34-37 in 71 games but are on a three-game winning streak and 6-4 in their last ten.
At home, the Bulls have been solid, going 20-16 in the 36 games they have hosted at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
Last season, they made the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2017, so this year they have been one of the biggest disappointments in the league.
