Harden fractures thumb in blow to in-form Cavaliers
Cleveland Cavaliers guard James Harden fractured his thumb against the New York Knicks and is questionable to play their next game, the team said Wednesday.
The news comes as a blow to the in-form Cavs, who acquired former NBA Most Valuable Player Harden this month and have won six of seven games since.
"Cavaliers guard James Harden injured his right thumb in last night's 109-94 win over New York," said a team statement.
"A postgame examination by the Cavaliers' medical staff, followed by X-rays taken today, confirmed a non-displaced fracture of the distal phalanx."
"Harden will undergo treatment and continued evaluation and will be listed as QUESTIONABLE for tonight's game against Milwaukee. An update on his status will be provided as appropriate."
The Cavaliers are currently joint-third in the Eastern Conference, and are among the top contenders for this year's NBA title.
The 36-year-old has never won a championship despite being one of the most decorated players in the league.
"We're working to build something special," said Harden after his new side's most recent win on Tuesday night.
