3 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers shooting guard James Harden continued his nightly packing of the stat sheet during Friday's victory over the Clippers. Back in his native California, Harden recorded his first points/rebounds double-double since Dec. 8, as he collected 29 points and 15 rebounds, tossing in seven assists for good measure. The 15 boards are a season high for Harden, who is on pace to tie his output from last year with an average of 7.9 rebounds collected on a nightly basis. Also of note is that Harden went 11-for-11 from the free-throw line, bringing his average makes from the stripe since joining Philly (8.8) higher than his attempts (8.0) while with Brooklyn this year. Next up is a contest Sunday vs. Phoenix, whom Harden has a triple-double and double-double against in two prior meetings this year, despite having been held to a combined 10-for-34 shooting.--Jesse Borek
