Out Wednesday Harden (hamstring) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, Malika Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Harden was a late-add to Wednesday's injury report due to left hamstring tightness and he'll be forced to miss at least one game as a result. With Harden sidelined, Cam Thomas, DeAndre' Bembry and Bruce Brown could be in line for increased run in the Nets' backcourt. Harden's next chance to return will be Saturday against the Warriors.

He played 17 minutes in Tuesday's 106-96 loss to the Lakers, finishing with six points (3-5 FG, 0-2 FT) and six rebounds. Day'Ron Sharpe is expected to operate as the starting center, while LaMarcus Aldridge and James Johnson take on increased roles off the bench.

Lands 12 points in starting role Bembry recorded 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 106-96 loss to the Lakers.
Impact Bembry was back in the starting lineup Tuesday, something that is going to continue as long as Kyrie Irving remains unavailable for home games. While he has a proven ability to contribute on both ends of the floor, Bembry simply has minimal upside, so managers need not concern themselves with his role on most nights. Those in deeper formats should view him as a potential streaming option when Irving sits out.

Returns to action Tuesday Claxton finished Tuesday's 106-96 loss to the Lakers with six points (3-5 FG, 0-2 FT) and six rebounds over 17 minutes.
Impact Claxton came off the bench in his return but played 17 minutes compared to just 11 minutes for Day'Ron Sharpe, who started the game. While Sharpe has been a solid fill-in for Claxton, it makes sense that the team will want to get Claxton back in the opening five sooner rather than later. His playing time is likely to be monitored closely for at least the next week, but even in 22 minutes per night, Claxton has enough upside to be rostered in most 12-team leagues.
