There was no shortage of amazing performances around the NBA on Wednesday, December 5. Three different players tallied 42 points or more in winning efforts. In addition, "The Claw" continues to excel North of the Border, and KAT is getting it done for Minnesota. Here are the five best stars from Wednesday's games.
Paul George - Oklahoma City Thunder
PG13 had a rough start for the OKC Thunder in their outing against the Brooklyn Nets. By the time the game was over, he more than made up for that. Not only did he score the NBA's high point total for the night (47), he also grabbed 15 boards, and had OKC's game-winning shot.
The Thunder were down 18 after 3 quarters.

Stephen Curry - Golden State Warriors
One of two superstars on the same evening to achieve 42 points was Stephen Curry. The Golden State Warriors are certainly happy to have their top player back on the court as Steph's 42 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists helped them defeat the Cavs.
