Analysis:

George has been on a rebounding tear lately -- averaging 25.0 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 3.2 assists across 36.4 minutes per game across his last five appearances. Though he had a solid offensive outing Tuesday, he committed six turnovers, which proved to be fairly costly considering how close the game became down the stretch.
