James Harden

PG, Houston Rockets

James Harden scored 27 points on 6-of-12 shooting and 11-of-13 shooting from the stripe in a loss to the Lakers on Sunday.

Harden shot 4-of-8 from beyond the arc and added seven assists and two steals to the stat sheet. He has played well in the two games thus far, but the issue for the Rockets in this one was Russell Westbrook. Westbrook shot 4-of-15 from the field and had seven turnovers. The Rockets will need everyone to fire on all cylinders in order to steal this series from the Lakers. We will see how they rebound from this loss in Game 3 on Tuesday night.
