#5 Paul George
Oklahoma City Thunder's blockbuster offseason acquisition may not be lighting up the scoring charts with the regularity that he did with the Pacers, but Paul George is more than adequate on the offensive end for the Thunder on his usual form.
His impact has been much greater on the defensive end, as his proactive play has helped the Thunder force, on an average, 17.2 deflections per game - that figure is 2.1 better than the Raptors who rank second. George is also leading the league in steals this season and is on pace to finish the season with over 200, at a 2.5 per-game clip.
He is also one of the best shot blockers playing at the small forward position with his wingspan, though he is yet to show that side of his game in more than small spurts (he routinely guards the opposition's best forward/center for entire game lengths, which might contribute to his low block totals).
With at least 2 more full-length contracts left to play for, PG-13 is one of the best bets in the league to put up a five-by-five on any given night.
