In a dazzling offensive display, James Harden’s season-best 35 points in the fourth quarter propelled the Los Angeles Clippers (16-10) to a decisive 151-127 victory over the Indiana Pacers (13-12) on Monday night.
While Kawhi Leonard and Paul George played crucial roles, it was Harden’s late-game surge that secured the Clippers’ eighth consecutive win, marking their longest winning streak since 2015-16.
“That’s vintage. That’s vintage James right there. I remember the days of having to match up against that. Once he gets going, he’s the best at creating space and creating off the dribble. Watching it on his side now, it’s fun to watch,” George said about Harden’s performance, per Tomer Azarly.
