What does this mean for his fantasy value? I don't see a higher option than him in Houston with Lowry in Toronto and Martin in OKC. It's pretty much Harden, Lin and a bunch of young(er)ins. Can we expect 22-24ppg/4-5rpg/4-5apg with a couple of steals on a mid-40 percentage from the field?

I would expect his averages would be 20-23ppg/6rpg/3apg with 2 steals but shooting around 40-42% from the field. I would also expect to see his turnover rate going from 2 a game to over 3 a game. His assists would not improve since I think he will be taking most of the shots. He doesn't have the luxury to past it to someone like Durant where I think he got 2-3 assists a game from him alone in OKC.

How does this affect Lin aswell?

i was just about to make a similar topic. I was gonna say Harden is now a def top 15 or even top 10 pick.
He is going to score at least 18 ppg, but I see the avg being 20-22 ppg. This changes everything.
i see him as 20/4/4 player. Lin's assist is going to go up as well. DAAAAAMN...just like that, ranking is changed.

I hear that. I had a few chances to draft him a few days ago since he was falling in the ranks for some reason. Instead, i went for Martin in the later rounds......

Haha I got him on one team in the 4th round with the 37th pick. What a huge steal. Well my team auto drafted and picked Dirk first so I guess it makes up for that
