Paul George catches fire, scores 34 in Thunder's Game 5 win
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George scored 34 points in a 107-99 win over the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night.
What It Means:
Despite getting down big in the third quarter, George helped to rally the Thunder to the comeback win. 12 of his 34 came in the third quarter while 21 came after half. He was 12-of-26 from the floor, 2-of-6 from three and 8-of-10 from the line. He also contributed eight rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block over nearly 45 minutes.
At a price of $8,100, George exceeded his projected output and went for 53.6 FanDuel points on Wednesday. For Friday's Game 6, we like him to follow it up with 37.3 FD points in 36.7 minutes.
