The Houston Rockets have decided to rest James Harden for two games to allow the guard to recover from a sore foot.
The 24-year-old has been struggling with the injury for over a month, forcing him to sit out the team's 112-101 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves last night.
Harden will also sit out tomorrow's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies before the injury will be reassessed.
Harden has averaged 24.2 points per game so far this season.
