Thunder Escape Jazz in Double-OT Classic, Win 148-147 on Paul George Game-Winner

Alright, so maybe Paul George can keep it rolling.

The Thunder (38-20) and Jazz (32-26) had themselves an instant classic on Friday night in Oklahoma City, combining for 295 points and two overtimes in front of a sellout crowd at Chesapeake Energy Arena. In a wild game that featured 21 ties and 23 lead changes, George finally shut the door on the nearly 3-hour contest with a driving floater over Rudy Gobert with less than a second remaining in double-OT. The bucket gave him 45 points on the night (his seventh 40-point game of his season) and clinched the season series over Utah in dramatic fashion.
