Paul George only made the 2018 All-Star game after a number of notable names withdrew through injury, however, the 28-year-old will be one of the first names on the roster this year.

PG13 is currently averaging 25.5 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 4.4 assists, which are all career highs for the power forward, and George is also the only player in the NBA that is averaging at least 24 points, seven rebounds, four assists, and two steals.

The Thunder man has also carried his team to victories with a number of huge performances in recent weeks. George has scored at least 30 points in four of his last six games, and his performances have included dropping 47 points on the Nets and 43 points on the Kings.

Ultimately, George is in the form of his life, and his OKC team are reaping the benefits.
