Brooklyn Nets star James Harden played 46 minutes on a bum leg against the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 5 on Tuesday night, but the Bucks weren’t able to punish Harden’s defense in a dreadful second-half performance.

After several days of dilly-dallying due to his hamstring injury, James Harden finally decided to suit up for Game 5 on Tuesday.
