The Houston Rockets got off to a rough start (11-14) during the 2018-19 NBA season. After scoring 29 points in the victory against the Portland Trail Blazers, Harden was once again the center of attraction as he posted a 50-point triple double against the visiting Los Angeles Lakers to lead the Rockets to their second straight win.

Harden had 19 points in the first half and the Rockets walked into the halftime with a 6-point lead. In the second half, it was the defending MVP's show as he exploded for 17 points in the final quarter and helped the Rockets get the 126-111 win.

Even though Kyle Kuzma and LeBron James combined for 53 points for the Lakers, Harden was just too good that night and posted triple-double with 50 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.
