When you talk about the greatest shooting guards in the history of the NBA, names such as Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, and Clyde Drexler often come to mind. Those players all had the right combination of skill, athleticism, popularity, charisma, and the will to win that made them successful superstars in their eras. In essence, those great shooting guards have all become their own unique players—the likes of which could probably never be duplicated in the history of the league. However, no other shooting guard in the NBA was ever as unique as James Harden.

Coming into the NBA strictly as a shooter to complement the skills and capabilities of up and coming star players Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, James Harden developed from a role player to a Sixth Man of the Year and eventually to the top shooting guard of his generation. His growth and development have been nothing short of amazing. He has carved his name as the leader of a Houston Rockets franchise that is trying to relive the glory days of the 90’s.
