James Harden becomes first player to score 30 or more points against every opponent in one season

James Harden continues to make history.

The Rockets star tallied 31 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds in his team’s 121-105 win over the Hawks on Tuesday. In the process, he became the first player ever to score 30 or more points against all 29 opponents in one season.

Harden is having a historic season. He’s averaging 35.8 points, 7.7 assists and 6.4 rebounds while shooting 43.5 percent from the field and 35.5 percent from 3-point range.

The 29-year-old guard poured in 30 or more points in 32 straight games from mid-December to late February, a mark topped only by Wilt Chamberlain.

When the league was smaller and Wilt was so dominant.

Well good for Harden.

But, with the injury bug they had, he was their only hope for a high playoff spot.
He HAD to do what he did this year.
