James Harden is widely regarded as one of the best shooting guards to ever take the court.
Nowadays, he’s solidifying a different legacy as a playmaker.
In the Philadelphia 76ers’ 119-114 victory against the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday night, Harden notched a franchise record-tying 21 assists. The record is also held by both Wilt Chamberlain (Feb. 2, 1968) and Maurice Cheeks (Oct. 30, 1982).
Not bad company to be grouped with.
En route to the franchise record, Harden tied his career-high of 17 assists with over 11 minutes left in the fourth quarter.
