NBA History: 5 greatest Paul George performances of all time

#2 Thunder Vs Utah Jazz: December 23, 2018

Utah Jazz v Oklahoma City Thunder

On December 23, 2018 OKC faced the Utah Jazz in a regular season fixture. In the last season's playoffs (first round), Jazz eliminated Thunder. George wasn't fully healthy and struggled against them. He was ready this time and wanted to prove his worth for the team.

In the game, George played 40 minutes, scored 43 points, made 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 5 steals and one block. PG-13 was dominant on both ends of the court. He made 5 three-pointers (was 50% from the 3PT line) and 15 of 25 field goals (60% FG).

Oklahoma took a huge lead in the third quarter but Jazz fought back for victory in the fourth. The game ended in favour of OKC with 107-106. "I knew I had to take over. I looked to be aggressive, attack and make plays," George said after the game.
