Harden generated 20 points (8-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt), 10 assists, six rebounds, one steal and one block across 36 minutes of Saturday's 111-106 win over the Pelicans.
The Scoop: After posting 36 points, seven rebounds and nine assists last time out, Harden delivered a double-double on Saturday. The veteran guard's scoring has taken a significant hit since being traded to Cleveland, as he's averaging just 20.9 points per game with the Cavs, but he's been able to replicate his assist production and improve his rebounding. In total, Harden is averaging 24.1 points, 8.0 assists and 5.0 rebounds across 61 appearances this season.

Clowney (wrist) won't play Sunday in Sacramento, according to Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com
The Scoop: Clowney suffered a sprained right wrist in Wednesday's loss to OKC, subsequently ruling him out for Friday's game against New York. His next chance to suit up will be Monday in Portland. Without Clowney in the rotation, Ziaire Williams, averaging 11.4 points, 2.6 boards, 0.6 assists and 2.0 steals in eight starts this year, will presumably remain with the first five.
