JamesHarden

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Harden is an enigma wrapped in a mystery going into the season. On one hand, he know what he would look like if locked in and playing with the 76ers: pretty much what he's looked like the last two seasons, when his counting stats were essentially carbon copies. He was slightly better last season than his first in Philadelphia, leading the NBA with 10.7 APG and imrpvoing his shooting efficiency from the field. On the other hand, Harden is embroiled in a very public feud with team president Daryl Morey, stating he will never play for a team that employs Morey. Harden was already risky at this stage in his career due to questions about availability (at least 17 games missed in each of the last three seasons), but this feud/standoff adds a degree of uncertainty that makes it difficult to advise adding him to your fantasy basketball teams.
