James Harden Posts First Triple-Double Of Season
6 years agoHouston Rockets point/shooting guard James Harden answered his 54-point game Monday by posting his first triple-double of the season Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Harden finished with 25 points on 7-for-15 shooting, tying his season low with just 15 shot attempts one game after attempting a season-high 32. Without Chris Paul in the lineup, Harden has taken on an even bigger role in dishing out assists, as is evident by the 17 he racked up Wednesday. To top off his night, he set new season highs with 11 rebounds and six steals. If Paul remains sidelined for Friday’s match-up with the San Antonio Spurs, there’s no reason to think that Harden’s usage rate won’t continue to be sky high.

James Harden Ruled Out For Wednesday
2 months agoLos Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Harden will now miss his third game of the season and the front end of this back-to-back set. Hopefully, Harden will be feeling good enough to suit up for Thursday's contest against the Washington Wizards. The Clippers are going to be extremely shorthanded for this game. That means, Kevin Porter Jr., Bones Hyland, and Terance Mann should all see bigger roles in the rotation. Between the three, Porter is the best and most consistent streaming choice of them.

James Harden Could Miss Wednesday's Game
2 months agoLos Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Harden was uncertain to play on Monday, but he suited up and played 35 minutes in the loss to the Chicago Bulls. He struggled as he only knocked down five shots from the floor, so possibly the groin injury was impacting his performance. The Clippers would likely use a committee approach to fill the void if Harden was unable to play. Out of everyone, Kevin Porter Jr. would likely gain the most streaming value if Harden is unavailable for Wednesday's contest.

James Harden Will Play On Monday Night
2 months agoLos Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (groin) will play on Monday night versus the Bulls. The multi-time All-Star was under the weather for Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Lakers. But that didn't stop him from finishing with 21 points, 12 assists, and one steal. Harden has had his best season in years, and he could be even more productive against the Bulls with Kawhi Leonard (illness) and Ivica Zubac (eye) sidelined.

James Harden Likely Playing On Monday
2 months agoTomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports that despite dealing with right groin soreness, Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (groin) is probable for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Harden played through an illness on Sunday but still managed to finish with 21 points, four rebounds, 12 assists, and one steal across 40 minutes. Fantasy managers, if the 35-year-old is available, expect him to be an excellent fantasy option, especially with Kawhi Leonard (knee) getting the night off to rest.
