Rockets' James Harden (hamstring) could return to action on Thursday

Houston Rockets guard James Harden (hamstring) could return to action on Thursday or Saturday, according to head coach Mike D'Antoni.

What It Means:

Harden has been out since suffering a Grade 1 hamstring strain on New Year's Eve. He was expected to return within 2-to-3 weeks, putting him on schedule. The Rockets went 4-2 in the Beard's absence with Eric Gordon starting in his place.

Harden is projected by our models for 27.8 points, 5.9 rebounds, 7.4 assists, and 1.8 steals per game the rest of the season.
