Another OKC Thunder game, another Lu Dort masterclass.

We thought last season was a breakthrough year for Dort, but this season he has truly gone to new heights especially in his offensive game.

After his 42 point game against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday, he backed it up with an exceptional 26 point performance where his spark and relentless never-say-die attitude inspired the OKC Thunder as they managed to close an 11 point lead in the fourth quarter.
