James Harden scores 20 in Rockets' win
Houston Rockets guard James Harden scored 20 points during a 128-110 win over the Denver Nuggets on Friday, adding six rebounds, seven assists, one steal, one block, five turnovers and one 3-pointer.
Compared to some of his prior games, it was an off night for Harden, but a win is a win. It was even more impressive on the second night of a back to back, so we'll give Harden a pass for the off shooting night after playing 46 minutes in Thursday.
Harden is averaging 28.3 points with a career-best and league-leading 11.8 assists per game. He has a solid .518 effective field goal percentage and his nERD of 4.4 ranks 5th among all players.
