1. James Harden- Houston Rockets Since being traded to the Rockets in 2012, James Harden leads all shooting guards in points scored, usage percentage, and made free throws. He’s established himself as one of the most dangerous offensive players in the entire NBA, regardless of the position.

I would have 8 different spots around…
