Paul George has been the best player for the Thunder this season. When Westbrook went down due to injury, he led the Thunder to victories and held the team together. George is also leading the Thunder in points per game this season.

He is having arguably the best season of his career and is averaging career-high numbers. After an impressive debut season with the Thunder last year, he has taken his game to the next level and is the main reason why the Oklahoma City Thunder are currently at the third spot in West.

The 5-time All-Star is also second behind 'The Brodie' in steals per game with 2.2 and is bringing the best two-way monster out every single night and is going on a tear this season. Paul George was recently named the Western Conference Player of the Week 10 after averaging 35.3 points, 11.3 rebounds, 5.0 assists per game.

George has also been terrific from the three-point land and is knocking them down at high accuracy from long range. He is expected to make it to the All-Star Game this year for the sixth time in his career and will be interesting to see how he performs in the playoffs this year.
