The Houston Rockets point guard James Harden spoke about his 31 straight games at or above 30 points.

“The scoring streak is obviously amazing, but it’s something that I just had to do because of our situation. We had all the injuries and guys in and out of the lineup and things like that. So I think the streak just started happening, and now it’s like something to talk about.

But it’s not something that I’m really honestly focused on. That’s something I have to do in order to give us a chance to win the game,” Harden said, per ESPN.

This season, James Harden is averaging 36.6 points, 6.7 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game, while shooting at 44.1 percent from the floor and 37.4 percent from three in 37.4 minutes of action.
