MILWAUKEE (AP) — James Harden is questionable for Cleveland's game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night because of a right thumb injury.
The Cavaliers guard was injured during Tuesday night's 109-94 win over the New York Knicks. Harden was examined by the Cavaliers medical staff after the game and X-rays on Wednesday showed a non-displaced fracture of the distal phalanx.
Harden will undergo treatment and evaluation. The 17-year veteran was traded by the Los Angeles Clippers to Cleveland on Feb. 4, and is averaging 18.9 points, 4.6 rebounds and eight assists in his seven games with the Cavaliers.
