James Harden is not listed in the injury report released by the Clippers ahead of game 6 against the Nuggets. Thus, he will most certainly be in the starting lineup and will likely play the majority of the minutes.

James Harden has been averaging 22.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 8.7 assists per game this season. While these are credible numbers, he will have to come up with something extraordinary to deny Nikola Jokic and co. from taking an unassailable lead of 4-1 tonight. Let's see how he will fare.
