Paul George's first season with the Philadelphia 76ers has been snakebitten, to say the least. Coming over from the Los Angeles Clippers as a free agent over the summer PG-13 has missed 11 games already and struggled to adjust to his new environment when on the court, averaging merely 16.5 points per game after putting up 22.6 last season in Los Angeles.
This was obviously not how it was supposed to go when George signed a $211 million deal with Philly this offseason. However, it is not entirely his fault, as the Sixers have been plagued by an unusually brutal sequence of injuries across the roster and have missed their best player, Joel Embiid, for all but 13 of the 36 games played so far. In the former MVP's absence George has been asked to play small-ball center in short stretches. On Friday night, he gave an honest review of doing so and clearly wasn't a fan.
