5 years agoHouston Rockets guard James Harden did not have the start to the season many fantasy owners were hoping for on Thursday night. Despite a respectable 19 points, 14 assists and seven rebounds, the 2018 MVP was inefficient and turnover-prone in the loss against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Beard shot 2-for-13 from the field and 1-for-8 from behind the arc along with seven turnovers on the night. Harden was still Harden, though, as he was perfect from the free-throw line, going 14-for-14. He was held below 20 points in only three games last season, and owners should keep an eye on how big of an impact the Russell Westbrook trade will have going forward. For now, though, expect Harden to bounce back against the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday night.--Euan Leith
