James Harden told NBA investigators that his comments about Daryl Morey were in reference to a trade from the Philadelphia 76ers if he opted into his $35.6 million option for 23-24.

Morey allegedly told Harden he would "quickly" trade him after the opt-in decision in late June.

The Sixers' stance is now that they expect to keep Harden as a trade this offseason didn't materialize.
