Some days are more special than others — whether because of a birthday of a loved one or a national holiday. But for Paul George, all of the days since the start of his 12th season have been nothing less than special: 20 games into the season, the seven-time All-Star has been making headlines, averaging 25.9 points, 5.2 assists, and 7.5 rebounds per contest.
Although this level of performance — and the accompanying MVPG comments and worldwide attention — is nothing new for George, it is a positive shift from his first not-so-hype-worthy moments in a Clippers uniform.
