2018 NBA Playoffs: 5 Superstars that Dominated the Opening Weekend

#4 Paul George

George was hot as a firehose in the Thunder's first game against the Jazz

Paul George has shown in the past that he can turn it up a couple of notches in the postseason, and he did just that to power the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 116-108 win over the Utah Jazz in the first game of their series.

While Russell Westbrook also put up a solid statline, it was George's night as the 5-time All-Star went OFF for 36 points on 13-of-20 shooting from the floor. He was even better from behind the 3-point line, making a staggering 8 out of 11 shot attempts from downtown.

One of his signature moments from the game was a buzzer-beating 3-point shot at the end of the 3rd quarter to put the Thunder up by 9 points, and they never looked back from that point onwards, going on to put the game beyond the reach of the Jazz at 109-91 with around 3 minutes left in the final quarter.
