James Harden recorded a triple-double on Thursday with 17 points (3-of-9 FGs, 10-of-10 FTs), 12 rebounds, 13 assists, one steal, one block, six turnovers and one 3-pointer in a 110-93 win over the Wizards.
Harden was one of a few rotation players that sat out against Boston on Wednesday. However, they were all fresh for their matchup with Washington, and Harden ended up recording his second triple-double of the season, with the first coming back in October. Inefficiency still plagued him, but the counting stats were strong once again. Harden has at least 10 assists in three straight games, though he has turned it over at least five times and made less than 40% of his shots in each of those. They wrap up the week against the Bucks on Saturday.
