The Whittier Daily News reports that a Los Angeles County jury has ordered Clippers guard James Harden to pay $900,000 in punitive damages and  $450,000 in compensatory damages to the owner of a house Harden rented in 2019.

Per the story, the homeowner accused Harden of damaging the house and damaging the homeowner’s relationship with his HOA. The story also says that the jury found Harden liable for “fraud,” but doesn’t explain what acts of fraud were alleged. Harden’s camp says the homeowner was trying to extort money from him.

The story reports that the jury ordered Harden to “share in the payment” of the $450,000 compensatory damages with a management company and its owner. That probably means that that the management company and its owner were co-defendants, and they’ve all been found jointly and severally liable for the compensatory damages award.
