James Harden's greatest postseason performance is often debated, but one of his most dominant and clutch playoff performances came in Game 4 of the 2015 Western Conference Finals against the Golden State Warriors.

May 25, 2015 – Western Conference Finals, Game 4 vs. Warriors​

Stat line:
  • 45 points (13-22 FG, 7-11 3PT, 12-13 FT)
  • 9 rebounds
  • 5 assists
  • 2 steals
  • 2 blocks

Why It Stands Out:​

  • Facing elimination, Harden exploded for 45 points, setting a franchise record for most points in an elimination game at the time.
  • He outplayed Stephen Curry and helped the Rockets extend the series, avoiding a sweep.
  • He was efficient, hitting 59% of his shots, including 7 threes and 12 free throws.
  • He contributed on both ends, adding steals and blocks while controlling the game.

Other Contenders for Harden's Best Playoff Game:​

  • 2017 First Round, Game 5 vs. OKC: 34 PTS, 8 AST, 4 REB to close out Russell Westbrook’s MVP season.
  • 2020 Second Round, Game 7 vs. OKC: Game-winning block on Luguentz Dort.
  • 2023 Second Round, Game 1 vs. Celtics: 45 PTS, 6 AST, hitting the game-winning shot without Embiid.
  • 2023 Second Round, Game 4 vs. Celtics: 42 PTS, 8 REB, 9 AST, another game-winner.
That 2015 Game 4 performance remains Harden’s highest-scoring playoff game, efficient, and in an elimination game, making it arguably his greatest individual postseason showing.
