Paul George goes off for career-high 48, but Jazz hold him off in overtime period

SALT LAKE CITY – All game long, the Indiana Pacers relied on forward Paul George, who scored a career-high 48 points Saturday night against the Utah Jazz. But when it really counted, George was nowhere to be found as the Utah Jazz took a thrilling 122-119 overtime victory at Vivint Arena.

George was unstoppable most of the night as he hit 15 of 27 field goals, including 8 of 11 from 3-point range. But in the overtime period, George was only able to take two shots and didn’t take a single shot over the final four minutes of OT when the Jazz outscored the Pacers 12-6.
