Keyonte George News: Posts solid scoring night

George produced 25 points (8-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 8-9 FT), two rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one block in 33 minutes during Sunday's 126-103 loss to the Hornets.

George wasn't exactly on fire from the field in this one, but he made up for it by getting to the charity stripe to attempt a team-high nine shots. He's now put up 20-plus points in three of his last four matchups. It seemed possible, if not likely, that George would lose his starting spot to Isaiah Collier (hamstring) when the latter got healthy. However, George has gotten off to a great start in 2025-26 and probably will not relinquish the role in the short term.
