After playing two games without Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony, Paul George was probably happy to see his running mates return to to the lineup on Tuesday night.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough, as the Thunder fell to the Cavs, 120-112.

After shootaround earlier on Tuesday, Paul George spoke on a number of topics, including the irony behind his shooting a career-best 42.8 percent from three-point territory this season.

George has had persistent but intermittent “tightness” in the forearm of his shooting arm, but he’s been able to overcome it and become the team’s best shooter from distance.

On Tuesday night, against the Cavs, he actually set a franchise record.

It was the fourth consecutive game in which George had converted on at least five three-pointers. He shot 5-for-13.

The effort gave George the Thunder franchise record of most consecutive games with at least five three-point makes.

The NBA’s all-time record for most consecutive games with at least five three-point makes belongs to George McCloud, who accomplished the feat six consecutive games while playing for the Mavericks during the 1995-96 season.

For what it’s worth, both Stephen Curry and James Harden each converted at least five three-pointers in five consecutive games. Curry did it twice.

Current TNT analyst and former 10-year NBA veteran Dennis Scott also accomplished the feat in five consecutive games.

McCloud, however, stands all alone. George may be joining him soon, though.

In the three contests leading up to Tuesday night’s 120-112 loss, the All-Star forward shot 5-for-10 from distance against the Grizzlies on Sunday, 5-for-12 against the Lakers last Thursday and 6-for-11 against the Warriors in the Thunder’s 125-105 win over the defending champs back on February 6.

In total, George has shot 21-for-46 from three-point territory over the past week. As remarkable as it may seem (and it is), that’s just 45.6 percent—not too far from the 42.8 percent he was shooting entering play on February 13.

Forearm pain or not, George is a marksman. And now, he stands alone in Thunder franchise history.
