Harden returns, quickly leaves again with hamstring trouble

<p>NEW YORK &mdash; James Harden returned to Brooklyn’s lineup Monday but made it through just four minutes before his right hamstring trouble resurfaced.</p>
<p>Harden left in the first quarter against the New York Knicks and the Nets said he would not return.</p>
<p>Harden had missed the last two games with right hamstring tightness. He was originally hurt against Houston last Wednesday, missing the final quarter of a victory against his former team.</p>
<p>The Nets remain without Kevin Durant, who could return this week from his own hamstring injury that has sidelined him since mid-February.</p>
