2 years and 75 million long contract! Congratulations to Harden on his new contract, and Coffey is likely to give up returning to the Clippers

On May 19, the Los Angeles Clippers, who are the core team building, were directly eliminated by Jokic, Murray, Westbrook and Aaron Gordon due to poor performance in the playoffs. The Denver Nuggets led by Jokic, Murray, Westbrook and Aaron Gordon were directly eliminated in three to four. For them, the focus now is to strengthen the offseason and solve the rotation problem in a targeted manner. It should be emphasized that President Frank was interviewed and said that money was not a problem. The goal was to build a competitive team. We offered Paul George a three-year contract. This year, the same is true. In the year of signing, we continue to work hard and we want to strengthen.

According to open-air stand reporter Zach Buckley, All-Star guard James Harden and his team, after careful consideration, are not expected to execute next season's player option of up to $36.35 million, and then sign a two-year contract with the Los Angeles Clippers and President Frank. According to his performance this season, he is definitely qualified to jump out of the contract and become a free agent to fight for a little salary increase. James Harden, who played in the 2024-2025 season, played in seven games in the playoffs, played in 39.4 minutes, and averaged 18.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, 9.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1 block per game. His credit is worthy of getting more money.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to James Harden's new contract, the second person to give up returning to the Los Angeles Clippers has been released. This person is Coffey, who was directly abandoned by head coach Tyron Lue in the playoffs. It is usually a signal, which is equivalent to telling this guy that he is about to become a free agent. We hope you can get the salary you want, but it does not work for the team. Thank you, and good luck. This season, Kofi, who plays for the Los Angeles Clippers, played a total of 72 games in the regular season, averaged 9.7 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game, and did not have a minute of playing time in the playoffs.

Now, with James Harden and his team, they will reach a new long-term contract with Los Angeles Clippers President Frank and boss Ballmer, and will offer a two-year contract renewal of $75 million. Compared with the previous one, it has increased by $5 million, which is also a monetary reward and recognition for his efforts this season. It should be noted that Coffey is likely to give up returning to the Los Angeles Clippers during the offseason, mainly because he is not favored by head coach Tyron Lue and does not use the former directly in the playoffs, which means that even if he reduces his salary, he will not be reused. Instead of doing so, it is better to go to other teams to make a try.
