James Harden scored a career high 56 points going 19-for-25 from the floor in the Houston Rockets' 137-110 win over the Utah Jazz.

Harden became the first player since Michael Jordan to score that many points on 25 or fewer shots.

"I was just shooting it, I don't know," Harden said. "I don't really pay too much attention to it. I just try to take good shots and, like I said, pretty much make the right decision. Obviously, I'm going to make mistakes, but as long as I have that mindset, I'll be good.

"I've just got to be aggressive. Be aggressive, good things happen, not just for myself but for my team. I was still able to dish off a couple of assists and get guys involved still. I've just got to have that mindset every single game."

Harden has now scored 50 or more points six times in his career.
