Another inefficient outing George logged eight points (3-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block across 28 minutes during Sunday's 131-101 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Save for George's scoreless outing at the end of November, when he was battling an illness, this was the third-year guard's only single-digit scoring outing this season. He's still in the midst of a breakout campaign, but the dynamic guard is shooting only 37.5 percent from the field over his past five appearances.

Lauri Markkanen scored 30 points, Keyonte George had 29 and the Utah Jazz used a huge fourth quarter to beat the Brooklyn Nets 123-110 on Thursday night

DECEMBER 5 • Associated Press

Double-double vs. Brooklyn George tallied 29 points (8-20 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 9-9 FT), 10 assists and five rebounds over 31 minutes during the Jazz's 123-110 win over the Nets on Thursday.

Bounces back in victory George chipped in 28 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 10-12 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Monday's 133-125 win over the Rockets.

Impact George responded in a big way after failing to score Sunday, also against the Rockets. He had his shot working the from the field while getting to the charity stripe with ease. The 22-year-old was just as effective as a facilitator, leading the Jazz with eight dimes. Sunday's goose egg appears to be just a small blip on the radar for George, who has put up 27 or more points in four of his last five matchups.

DECEMBER 2 • Associated Press

Goose egg in Sunday's loss George amassed zero points (0-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one block across 19 minutes during Sunday's 129-101 loss to the Rockets.

Impact The third-year point guard came into the afternoon contest battling an illness, and George certainly didn't look to be 100 percent healthy in what was by far his worst offensive performance of the season. In fact, it's the first time in 2025-26 he'd failed to score in double digits, and just the second time he failed to drain at least one three-pointer. Utah will be back in action Monday in a rematch with Houston, and George has to be viewed as a risky lineup option until he shows he's fully kicked the bug.
