The Sixers signed free agents P.J. Tucker and Danuel House. Harden previously played with both in Houston. “For any other players, that’s a max contract,” he said of his lower numbers, “but it’s like, for me, I was not the same James Harden.” The 76ers lost to top-seeded Miami in the second round of the playoffs.
