The early signs of the Houston Rockets’ 2019-20 season are that James Harden has picked up where he left off last season. If you recall, Harden went on his “unguardable tour,” as he went on to score 30 or more points in 32 consecutive games, which is the second longest streak in league history.
Through ten games, Harden is leading the league in scoring yet again, and is averaging 37.3 points per game, which is more than the 36.1 points he averaged during the 2018-19 season. Thus far, Harden has had the most inefficient shooting percentages of his career, as he’s averaging 40.
