Paul George

The Los Angeles Clippers have received 2019 NBA MVP candidate Paul George from the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Thunder will receive Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Danilo Galllinari and a record-setting number of draft choices.

Fantasy Impact

George has been Kawhi Leonard’s preferred running mate all along. Leonard gave the Clippers time to acquire the two-way star and now this seemingly means Leonard is on his way to Los Angeles, as a Clipper.

Paul George is likely to miss the preseason while recovering from offseason shoulder surgery.

Fantasy Impact

George has reportedly undergone two surgeries in the offseason on his rotator cuff and left labrum. He seemed bothered by the injury at the end of last season, but he’s expected to make a full recovery.

Paul George will start and play in Game 2 on Tuesday versus the Blazers despite a sore shoulder.

Fantasy Impact

George wasn't himself in Game 1 and the Blazers took advantage of it stealing Game 1. George will look to bounce back but remains a risky DFS option at his price tag.

Paul George scored 27 points against the Rockets on Tuesday, adding nine rebounds, three assists and four steals, over 42 minutes.

Fantasy Impact

George was much more efficient in the second half, after getting off to a slow start. This is the second game in-a-row in which he has scored 27 points, which is about what can be expected from him on average going into the playoffs.

Paul George scored 27 points (8-for-22 FG, 4-for-13 3PT), along with seven assists, six rebounds and three steals, against the Timberwolves on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

George co-led the Thunder in scoring which, along with his other stats, resulting in an overall fantasy total that owners will be quite happy with. George has been very productive the last couple of weeks, with the Thunder regaining the form that worked so well for them prior to the All-Star break. George will be a top play for his two remaining games in the regular season.
