We know that Houston Rockets star James Harden can score in a big way. On Wednesday, he showed some pretty sweet passing ability, too.
Harden got possession of the ball and ran down the court with Gerald Green, surrounded by New York Knicks. Rather than wait for more teammates or pull up for a shot, Harden lobbed a perfect alley-oop to Green, who threw it down.

Harden has been on an unreal scoring streak for a long time. Wednesday’s game has been no different. He joined Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant as the only players to score 50 or more in the first 50 games of the season since the NBA-ABA merger.
But when everyone is expecting him to shoot, he’s very capable of finding a teammate to get the points for his team.
