Harden is expected to return to action tonight after two games out of lineup

On Sunday evening, the Los Angeles Clippers will host Dejounte Murray and the Atlanta Hawks in California. 

For the game, the Clippers could be without one of their best players, as James Harden is on the injury report. 

The 2018 MVP has missed each of the previous two games, so this would be his third straight out of the starting lineup (if he doesn't play). 

Via Underdog NBA: "James Harden (shoulder) questionable for Sunday."
