Rockets grind out win over Bulls in Harden’s return

James Harden returned to the lineup tonight and led his team to victory over the Chicago Bulls by a score of 96-88.

Harden missed the last three games with a hamstring strain but returned tonight and looked shaky with eight turnovers but was able to contribute a good deal and the Rockets would not have won tonight without his efforts.

In the first half, it took Harden a long time to get comfortable, not scoring until midway into the second quarter. Luckily for The Beard, his teammates were able to carry the load.
