MIDWEST CITY – The teens flocked around Paul George like he was a member of The Beatles in the mid-1960's, screaming, grabbing at the Thunder forward as if he were a rock star.
Then the cell phones went up for selfies, and racks of the Nike PG2 shoe were rolled onto center court at Carl Albert High School on Wednesday and you were reminded it was 2018.
Of course, when they weren't mobbing the All-Star, the students' chants of “We Want George” grew loud enough for George to soak them in.
“Yeah, it never gets old,” George said.
