Rockets' James Harden: Double-doubles in high-scoring win

Harden produced 24 points (6-15 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 7-10 FT), 10 assists, five rebounds, two steals and one block over 35 minutes in Saturday's 142-130 win over the Timberwolves.

Analysis:

One look at the the Rockets' point total and it would be natural to assume that Harden had one of his trademark astronomical stat lines, but the offensive contributions were actually distributed fairly evenly across the Houston lineup Saturday. Harden's point total was still tops on the team, and he bounced back nicely from a 13-point tally against the Pelicans on Thursday. He also posted double-digit assists for the fourth straight contest, while his five three-pointers equaled his second-best total in that category in February.
