Rockets' James Harden (grade 2 hamstring strain) will be re-evaluated in 2 weeks
Houston Rockets guard James Harden has been diagnosed with a grade 2 hamstring strain and will be out for at least 2 weeks.
What It Means:
Harden left Sunday's game versus the Los Angeles Lakers after feeling his hamstring pull while going up for a layup. He will now be sidelined for at least 2 weeks. His absence will likely lead to bigger roles for Chris Paul and Eric Gordon.
numberFire's models project Harden to average 27.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 7.8 assists in 35.3 minutes per game over the remainder of the season.
