Top potential All-Star injury replacements for Harden include Toronto's Pascal Siakam and Jarrett Allen from the host Cleveland Cavaliers, via Marc Stein. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver will pick the replacement.

Sixers acquired James Harden from the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for fellow guards Ben Simmons and Seth Curry, center Andre Drummond, and two first-round picks.

The 32-year-old Harden hasn't played since a loss to the Sacramento Kings on February 2.

On the season, Harden has played in 44 games, averaging 22.5 points, 10.2 assists, and 8.0 rebounds per game.

In last Thursday's draft, LeBron James added Harden to his roster for the NBA All-Star Game, which will take place on February 20.

Meanwhile, Kevin Durant avoided picking his former Nets and Thunder teammate.
