• Clippers' James Harden: Scores team-high 24 points

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Harden accumulated 24 points (5-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 11-12 FT), seven rebounds and five assists over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 104-93 victory over the Magic. Harden continued his role as the Clippers top offensive weapon in a convincing home win, although Wednesday's game was a slight regression compared to his most recent totals. Despite key injuries hindering the squad, Harden is getting enough production from his supporting cast to reach a 9-7 record, which is a much better result than many expected given the departure of Paul George and the continuing injury struggles for Kawhi Leonard (knee).

• Clippers' James Harden: Hands out 16 assists Monday

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Harden finished Monday's 102-99 win over the Warriors with 12 points (4-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, 16 assists, two blocks and two steals across 41 minutes. Harden matched his season-high mark in the assists department and now has nine double-doubles, along with one triple-double, as the Clippers' main offensive option. Despite his strong all-around numbers, fantasy managers who are rostering Harden should begin to be concerned with his lack of efficiency. Once one of the best shooters in the league, he's now shooting just 37.5 percent from the floor, including 33.3 percent from deep, since the beginning of November.

• Clippers' James Harden: Impressive stat line Sunday

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Harden racked up 20 points (7-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists, two blocks and two steals across 34 minutes during Sunday's 116-105 victory over the Jazz. Harden continues to struggle with his three-point shot, but other than that, he turned back the clock Sunday and delivered an impressive all-around effort with at least two tallies in each of the five major categories. Harden recorded double-digit assists for the fifth time this season and scored in double digits for the fourth time in his last six outings. During that span, Harden has averaged 20.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.3 assists and 1.3 steals across 33.7 minutes per game.

• Clippers' James Harden: Scores 21 points Friday

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Harden closed with 21 points (7-14 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 31 minutes during Friday's 125-104 loss to the Rockets. Harden led the Clippers in scoring Friday, but overall, it was a poor offensive showing from Los Angeles -- no other player surpassed the 15-point mark and no other starter registered more than 13 points. Harden continues to produce as the engine that keeps the Clippers offense going, though. He's averaging 18.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.0 blocks per game since the beginning of November despite shooting just 37.4 percent from the field.

• Clippers' James Harden: Continues solid stretch of play

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Harden closed Wednesday's 111-103 loss to the Rockets with 19 points (6-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and three steals across 31 minutes. Harden has been playing at a high level this season despite not being the Clippers' go-to option as a scorer, and his numbers have been excellent overall. He's been particularly good for standard formats, as managers who roster him in category-based formats have been suffering a bit with his lack of efficiency. Harden is shooting 35.6 percent from the field, 34.7 percent from three and 85.1 percent from the charity stripe since the beginning of November, but his overall stat line of 18.4 points, 8.3 rebounds, 6.9 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.0 blocks per game in that stretch compensates for the lack of efficiency.
