The New York Knicks recorded a surprise victory over the Houston Rockets (125-123) behind 27 points by rookie RJ Barrett. After the game, James Harden talked about his game and what he needs to do to be a great player.

“Aggressive. I like it, especially as a rookie. Not timid at all. When you are aggressive and confident in your game, you look good out there. Long as he continues to build his confidence, keep being aggressive and get the opportunity, which he will, he’ll be great,” Harden said.
