Harden didn’t score until the second quarter when he drained a baseline jumper. It was Harden’s first game in six months. He went 50% from 3 and went 6/9 from the field. It was a solid debut for the former Sun Devil, but I’m sure he will only get better as he becomes more confident in that offense and works again with Russell Westbrook, who scored 17.

The Knicks did not let Harden’s debut faze them, as Julius Randle scored a 27 points and ten rebound double-double. Mitchell Robinson also had a double-double with 13 points and 15 rebounds. RJ Barrett added 26. So, Harden will have to help the superteam Clippers more if they want to start winning.
