#1 James Harden
While Harden isn’t a great defender, “The Beard” is one of the most prolific scorers in the NBA. Harden is an extremely efficient scorer, as he posts the highest field goal percentage for shooting guards who shoot over 15 attempts per game. The California native loves to attack the rim as well, as his 9 free throw attempts per game is number one amongst shooting guards. Jerry Colangelo recently called Harden the offensive leader of Team USA at the FIBA World Cup as “there isn’t much he can’t do on that side of the floor.” Look for Harden to finish in the top three in scoring and push the Rockets to a deep playoff run.
