The Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Chicago Bulls at home, 121-96. Ten days after falling way short in Chicago, losing to a Bulls team in disarray, OKC exacted a measure of revenge with a 2nd quarter surge that safely put the game away.
Not surprisingly, Paul George led that surge with 16 points in the 2nd quarter on a perfect 6-6 shooting, including 3-3 from 3-point range. He capped off the late 25-7 run with an and-one conversion that pushed the lead to 20. PG finished with a game-high 24 with 8 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 steals.
