James Harden may return Sunday against the Chicago Bulls

Nets fans were understandably worried when James Harden left a game against the Rockets with a hamstring injury, but Steve Nash touched on Harden’s injury status and provided good news.

Nash told the media it is very possible Harden will play on Sunday against the Chicago Bulls.

If the Beard makes his return as soon as tomorrow, he can get back to playing in the MVP form he’s been playing like all year for Brooklyn. He can also start his case for player of the month for April after earning consecutive honors for February and March. And he can keep the heat on the Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic in the MVP race.
