After his impressive performance against the Spurs, Harden has joined the likes of LeBron James, Chris Paul and John Stockton. According to StatMuse, players with 30+ points, 15+ assists, 0 turnovers in a game since 1985 are LeBron James, Chris Paul, John Stockton, James Harden. Moreover, Harden is the only player to also record a triple-double in the game.

Harden has been in top form in the ongoing season as he is averaging 25.2 points per game in the 30 matches of the season. Thus, the 31-year old shooting guard will look to continue his good show. Harden has been a great buy for the Nets and he has done a fine job with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.

The Brooklyn Nets will next lock horns against Harden’s former team, Houston Rockets on Thursday.
