Records double-double in win Harden notched 16 points (4-13 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 6-8 FT), four rebounds, 13 assists and three blocks across 44 minutes during Friday's 117-106 victory over Memphis.

Impact Harden notched his sixth double-double of the season, wrapping up a month during which the Clippers saw their offense begin to sync up as they adjusted to the vet's presence in the lineup. Harden has amped up his shot volume during Kawhi Leonard's (hip) absence, and Friday marked his first double-digit assist total since Leonard's injury.

Posts 20 points before halftime Harden supplied 29 points (8-16 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 7-8 FT), eight assists, six rebounds, two steals and one block across 40 minutes during Tuesday's 113-104 victory over the Hornets.

Impact Harden didn't do much after intermission, but he was unstoppable in the first half with 20 points. With Kawhi Leonard (hip) missing his third game in a row, Harden has been able to put up at least 13 field-goal attempts in each contest, but he could take a step back as a scorer and function primarily as a facilitator once Leonard is back in the fold.

Sniffs double-double in loss Harden chipped in 23 points (7-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine rebounds, six assists, one block and three steals over 34 minutes during Thursday's 134-115 loss to Oklahoma City.

Impact The Clippers' impressive run ended abruptly Thursday. However, Harden still delivered a solid stat line even if he came up short of registering a double-double and even if his shooting numbers were not as good as they've been in recent weeks. Firmly entrenched as the starting point guard in a star-studded lineup alongside Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, Harden has adapted well following a rocky start to life in Los Angeles. He's averaging 20.1 points, 9.5 assists and 5.4 rebounds per game over his last 10 contests.

3 points: The comeback Clippers, a Knicks logjam and the lowly Pistons

In prime form versus Indiana Harden recorded 35 points (12-16 FG, 8-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Monday's 151-127 win over the Pacers.

Impact Harden rained in 18 consecutive points in the fourth quarter as part of a dominant shooting display, highlighted by earning a four-point play off his signature step-back three. Scoring volatility from night to night is still justifiable given the amount of weapons in the Clippers offense, but Kawhi Leonard (28 points) and Paul George (27 points) joined him in forming a well-balanced trio in Monday's win. Playing Indiana is a fantasy gold mine, but Harden is becoming a focal point for Los Angeles regardless of the opponent.

Posts double-double with 12 assists Harden ended with 10 points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT), four rebounds, 12 assists, two blocks and one steal across 28 minutes during Saturday's 144-122 victory over the Knicks.

Impact Although Harden took a step back after his best game in a Clippers uniform Thursday night, he did enough to post his fourth double-double of the season. The team is starting to hit a rhythm throughout the starting lineup and is on a seven-game tear, due in large part to Harden's improvement.

Impact On a third-quarter layup, Harden became the 24th player in NBA history to reach 25,000 career points, and he figures to crack the top 20 in all-time scoring before the season is out -- Vince Carter currently sits in 20th place with 25,728. Harden's beginning to get comfortable in Los Angeles, and over the last eight games he's averaging 20.0 points, 8.8 assists, 4.9 boards, 3.0 threes, 1.8 steals and 1.0 blocks a night.

Effieicnt total in win Harden finished with 15 points (4-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 119-99 victory over the Kings.

Impact Harden's only demerit was a goose egg beyond the arc, but it was an otherwise decent game directing the offense. With Kawhi Leonard doing most of the heavy lifting recently, Harden has been more valuable as a ball distributor recently, a role he continues to share with Russell Westbrook.

Impact Harden had a solid all-around game and played clutch defense in the closing moments of the game, bouncing back nicely from a subpar 12-point effort against Utah. He also recorded his first dunk as a Clipper in the third quarter and recorded one of his best rebound totals of the season.

James Harden Double-Doubles Over Denver In Win | LA Clippers

DECEMBER 7, 2023 • YOUTUBE

Records double-double in win Harden logged 20 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), one rebound, 11 assists, one block and three steals in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 111-102 victory over Denver.

Impact Harden has been clutch during the Clippers' 3-1 run, and the offense is finally showing signs of synchronization despite the quandary of three stars who need the ball often. While Kawhi Leonard will create unique opportunities, the trio of Harden, Paul George and Russell Westbrook has been a headache to manage for coach Tyronn Lue, who is tasked with turning the explosive talents on his roster into a more cohesive team. Harden's recent run of production has left Westbrook the odd man out in this equation, and he scored only nine points in Wednesday's win.

DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Another solid night Harden chipped in 18 points (6-13 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Thursday's 120-114 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Harden sank a season-high five three-pointers during Wednesday's win over Sacramento and tied that mark Thursday. He also continues to distribute at a high level, notching at least six assists in seven of his last eight appearances, and has recorded at least one steal in seven straight games. Harden isn't as prolific as his days in Houston, but he can still deliver quality fantasy outings consistently, even when sharing the court with Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Russell Westbrook.
