Clippers fans haven’t had much to root for this season. James Harden changed that on Saturday when he put up a franchise record 55 points in a 131-116 win over the Hornets.
He made 10 three-pointers and added seven assists to just two turnovers on the historic day. He erupted for 27 points in the first quarter alone, tying Lou Williams for the most points in a quarter ever by a Clipper. Harden‘s massive scoring day didn’t end there, as he finished with 55 points on 17-for-26 from the field, 10-for-16 from three and 11-for-14 from the foul line.
