Highlights From Ty Jerome's 24 Point Game

Jerome's Career Night Helps Lead Thunder To Victory

3-Pointers Fuel Thunder's Offense

Ty Jerome had a career night on Friday, scoring 24 points to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 112-108 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. Jerome was 8-of-12 from the field, including 6-of-8 from three-point range. His previous career high was 22 points, which he set earlier this season against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Jerome's hot shooting helped the Thunder snap a three-game losing streak. The Thunder are now 24-23 on the season, which is good for eighth place in the Western Conference. The Clippers fell to 22-24 with the loss.

Dort's Defense Stifles Clippers

In addition to Jerome's offensive outburst, Lu Dort also had a big game for the Thunder. Dort scored 19 points and grabbed 7 rebounds. He also played excellent defense on Clippers star Kawhi Leonard, holding him to just 17 points on 5-of-15 shooting.

Leonard is one of the best players in the NBA, so Dort's performance was particularly impressive. It was a clear sign that Dort is becoming one of the best young defenders in the league.

Thunder Win Streak Continues

The Thunder have now won two straight games and four of their last five. They will look to continue their winning streak on Sunday when they host the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Pelicans are one of the hottest teams in the NBA, so it will be a tough test for the Thunder. However, the Thunder are playing with a lot of confidence right now, and they will be looking to make a statement against one of the best teams in the league.
