James Harden finished with the 3x2 in Game 5

James Harden triple-doubled in Game 5 to stave off elimination for another night, finished with 26 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, but he left the game late due to an illness.

Fantasy Impact:

As good as he had been in the first four games, he managed to elevate his game further on Tuesday night after catching a cold that was bad enough to require an IV earlier on Tuesday. Without Patrick Beverly, and with the Rockets averaging 16.2 turnovers per playoff game, Harden will have to ball this hard in the next one if Houston is to have any shot at tying the series. He'll be good to go for Thursday's road challenge in Los Angeles.
