Top Four Shooting Guards

  1. James Harden ($11,500) vs. Utah Jazz
  2. Giannis Antetokounmpo ($10,000) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers
  3. Evan Fournier ($5,800) vs. San Antonio Spurs
  4. Jordan Clarkson ($5,200) vs. New Orleans Pelicans

Rationale:

  • During the first seven years of his career, Rockets guard James Harden has totaled 67 double-doubles, meaning he achieved the feat in 12.4 percent of his appearances. The switch to point guard has not only resulted in a league-high 12.2 assists per game, but Harden can move into a tie with Russell Westbrook with 15 double-doubles this season if he accomplishes the feat Tuesday against the Jazz. Harden is logging a double-double in 82.4 percent of his games played this year.
  • Even though Jordan Clarkson has made just one start for the Lakers this season, he still shares the team lead with Julius Randle in minutes played, at 27.7 per game. After making his first start of the year against Golden State, resulting in a 20-point effort, Clarkson returned to the bench for Sunday’s game against the Hawks and scored 18 points. The move to the second unit has elevated his presence as a defender, as Clarkson has recorded two or more steals in nine of 18 games and leads the team with an average of 1.9 steals per game.
