Funny news for the end of Nicolas Batum’s career in the NBA. The Frenchman from the Los Angeles Clippers, who will celebrate his 35th birthday next December, was sent to the Philadelphia Sixers on the night of Monday to Tuesday as part of the trade for star James Harden in California. After a season and a half at the Sixers, the 34-year-old all star will experience his fifth team in fifteen years in the NBA, after Oklahoma, Houston, Brooklyn and Philadelphia.
After months of conflict in Pennsylvania, Harden will join Paul George and his former Thunder teammate Westbrook in Los Angeles, in exchange for Nicolas Batum, Marcus Morris, Robert Covington, KJ Martin and several draft rounds.
