Paul George knocked down eight 3-pointers and finished with a season-high 41 points, and the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Charlotte Hornets 130-118 on Sunday night for their fifth straight road win.
George finished 14 of 21 from the field and 8 of 12 from beyond the arc to beat the Hornets for the 12th consecutive time. Ivica Zubac had 24 points and 12 rebounds and Kawhi Leonard chipped in with 23 points for the Clippers .George said he wasn't sure what type of a night he was going to have after he airballed his first shot and had another blocked.'You don't know,' George said. 'But what I do know is you have to stay aggressive and it's all about catching a rhythm.
'No, we are still a work in progress,' George said. 'I thought we were the better team so we should have won. But I thought it should have been more decisive than what it was. So we have room to improve. But we will get there.'Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue said he was disappointed in his team's defensive effort, which included allowing 23 3-pointers.'I just didn't think we had a defensive mindset coming into the game,' Lue said.
