It costs the 34-year-old dearly. The NBA fines Harden the maximum amount of $100,000, almost SEK 1.1 million.

— He is a liar and I will never be part of an organization that he is in, Harden said during a PR trip to China.
The players’ organization NBPA supports Harden and criticizes the decision.
