6 years agoHouston Rockets point/shooting guard James Harden is scoring at prolific levels for the time being and a match-up with the high-scoring New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday was only going to enhance his numbers. Harden has now eclipsed the 35-point plateau in seven consecutive games, bringing his league-leading scoring average up to 33.0 points per game. He went 7-for-17 from deep Saturday, in addition to knocking down all 14 free throws that he attempted. His incredible fantasy production didn’t cease there, as he added nine rebounds, six assists, three steals and two blocks, making a legitimate case as the best fantasy asset on the market when Chris Paul is sidelined.--Jesse Borek
