The Brooklyn Nets started Kyrie Irving, James Harden, and Kevin Durant for the first time this season on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the teams’ newest star has been underwhelming in his third game with the team. Harden scored just 2 points on a pair of free throws in the first half, and the Nets trail by 51-49 at the break.

Harden scored at least 30 points in each of his first two games with Brooklyn but has taken a step back in offensive aggression now that Irving is back. The Beard has remained an effective playmaker and rebounder with 4 assists and 5 boards but is 0-for-2 from the field. Irving and Durant have 17 and 11 points, respectively.

You’re not in great shape if you played Harden in DFS, thinking he could maintain his high ceiling alongside two co-stars, but there’s a chance he’ll pick things up in the second half. It seems like Harden could be comfortable being the Nets’ primary distributor while others do the scoring.
