Rockets to rest James Harden on Tuesday

Houston Rockets guard James Harden (rest) will not suit up for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls.

What It Means:

Rocekts' head coach Mike D'Antoni has said that he plans to rest players down the stretch in the regular season, and a matchup with the tanking Bulls is a prime place to start. Look for Eric Gordon to move into the starting lineup in Harden's place, while Chris Paul (hamstring, probable) should see a big bump in usage and Gerald Green will likely get a big bump in playing time.

Harden ranks fourth in the NBA with 53.5 FanDuel points per game this season.
