The numbers tell us Booker's historic game wasn't even the best that night. On Friday, with his Houston Rockets playing host to the New Orleans Pelicans, James Harden again filled the box score in a big way, totaling 38 points, 17 assists and 7 rebounds in 37 minutes.
Harden hit exactly 50% of his 24 shots, including 5 of 12 from three. He also totaled nine made free throws, bringing his true shooting percentage to 65.9%. The Rockets would go on to win the game 117-107 on the back of the Beard's 60.32 nERD.
