James Harden

A rejuvenated James Harden is bad news for the rest of the NBA. Entering Year 14, the 10-time All-Star produced a vintage performance out of the gates in his first full campaign with the Philadelphia 76ers. Matched up against the division rival Boston Celtics, Harden battles with his defender off the dribble before leaping back into a difficult stepback triple that he’s made look easy his entire career. Harden’s 35 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in the October 18, 2022 battle bode well for Philly’s long-term future.
