Paul George puts up season-high 35 points in under 30 minutes, Thunder crush Knicks
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George scored 35 points (13-of-22 field goals, 5-of-11 3-pointers, 4-of-4 free throws) with 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block in 28.6 minutes of a 128-103 win over the New York Knicks on Wednesday.
Despite the abbreviated playing time due to the lopsided score, George set a new season-high in points and also avoided committing a turnover for the first time in 14 games. Russell Westbrook (ankle) may be back for Saturday's game versus the Phoenix Suns, so George's usage could take a dip.
George scored a season-high 59.9 FanDuel points on Wednesday. He's averaging 45.7 FanDuel points per game.
