Injury update: James Harden will play tonight vs. Nets

He was initially being called a game-time decision, but it is almost game time and the decision is officially here. James Harden will play tonight against the Brooklyn Nets.

No word on whether he'll be limited, but with Jeremy Lin out, he is expected to get the start alongside Patrick Beverley.

Told Harden is good to go.

Harden had missed the team's last two games with a foot injury.

Brook Lopez will return to the lineup for the Nets, starting alongside Andray Blatche. Kevin Garnett is out for Brooklyn, as he'll get rest on night one of a road back-to-back set.
