Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden suffered an injury in Sunday's loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder at Intuit Dome. Harden rolled his foot after colliding with Thunder guard Lu Dort ( h/t Clippers reporter Justin Russo ).

So, regarding whether James Harden is playing tonight vs. the Knicks, the Clippers will need to protect the veteran floor general from further injury with the playoffs approaching. However, they need every win they can get if they hope to secure a top-six spot in the West playoff picture.
