James Harden put up 42 points (9-19 FG, 7-16 3PT, 17-18 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists, one block, and one steal across 39 minutes in the Rockets' 116-105 victory over the Celtics on Tuesday night.

Fantasy Impact:

Harden put the team on his back in this one, knocking down seven threes and piling up 18 free-throw attempts. What was even more impressive was how efficient he was on the evening, shooting 43 percent from three and 47 percent overall. The Beard has seen his numbers decrease a bit in the month of February, mainly due to the stellar play of teammate Russell Westbrook, but remains a top-three fantasy option. Harden enters the All-Star break with averages of 35.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 7.3 assists a night.
