Brooklyn Nets star James Harden won't be in the lineup for Game 3 against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, head coach Steve Nash told reporters, including Marc Stein of The New York Times.

Harden continues to deal with hamstring tightness after suffering an injury in the opening minute of Game 1. His status for the remainder of the series has yet to be determined, according to Nash.

The three-time scoring champion notably dealt with a hamstring strain that forced him to miss over a month toward the end of the season.

Jeff Green will join Harden on the sideline for Game 3. The forward has yet to play in the series due to a plantar fascia strain he suffered in Game 2 of the Nets' first-round series against the Boston Celtics.

The Nets lead the Bucks 2-0 in their Eastern Conference semifinal series.
