Paul George, affectionately known as ‘PG13,’ is one of the best two-way players in the NBA. The nine-time All-Star currently plays for the Philadelphia 76ers. The Indiana Pacers drafted George in 2010 with the 10th overall pick. Prior to his NBA career, he played college ball at California State University, Fresno. After two outstanding seasons with the Bulldogs, the school retired George’s jersey in 2019.
Throughout a 14-year career in the NBA, George has played for four teams — the Indiana Pacers, Oklahoma City Thunder, Los Angeles Clippers, and now with the 76ers. He was part of a blockbuster trade when the Thunder traded him to the Clippers for young Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Danilo Gallinari, five future first-round draft picks, and the rights to swap two other first-round picks. In 2024, he signed a four year, $211.58 million max. contract with the 76ers. Known for his smooth spot-up jump-shooting, George's offensive bag is deep. His jump shot is often regarded as one of the most aesthetically pleasing in the game. Additionally, in the 2018/19 season, PG led the NBA in steals (2.2), highlighting his elite defensive ability. In the 2023/24 season, Paul George averaged 22.6 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.7 steals per game.
