Lou Williams pours in season-high 35 points for Clippers
Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard Lou Williams scored 35 points (14-of-33 field goals, 4-of-6 free throws) with 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks, 3 3-pointers, and 3 turnovers in 44.2 minutes of a 141-133 double-overtime loss to the Boston Celtics on Thursday.
What It Means:
Williams set a new season-high in points while clearing the 30-point mark for the fifth time this season. Patrick Beverley (groin) missed the game and Paul George (hamstring) left early, and Williams took advantage. If George is forced to miss games, Williams should see a boost coming out of the All-Star break.
Lou scored a season-high 60.2 FanDuel points on Thursday. numberFire's models project him for 18.1 points, 2.8 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 0.7 steals, and 1.1 triples per game over the rest of the season.
