Cobbles together 15 points in loss
George ended with 15 points (5-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Monday's 137-117 loss to Portland.
Analysis
George added 15 points to an anemic Utah performance as the team's fortunes continue to sink. Despite the team's struggles, George has been a beacon of production in the backcourt, and although a recent illness decreased his totals somewhat, his 24.3 point-per-game average is on pace to crush his previous seasonal numbers. His current average of 6.8 assists is also set to be his best average in the category over his three-year pro career.

Questionable to play Saturday

Out with illness
George is out for Thursday's game against the Clippers due to an illness.
Analysis
George can be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's matchup in Golden State. The star guard's absence frees up plenty of minutes in the Utah backcourt Thursday. Isaiah Collier figures to start at point guard, while Walter Clayton could work his way onto the streaming radar in deeper leagues.
