Paul GeorgeBoston Celtics · #8
Paul George is a nine-time All-Star two-way wing acquired by the Boston Celtics in July 2026 in the Jaylen Brown trade. Known as 'PG-13,' the Fresno State product was drafted 10th in 2010, overcame a gruesome 2014 leg fracture, and built a résumé of All-NBA and All-Defensive honors across Indiana, Oklahoma City, the Clippers, and Philadelphia. He joins Boston as a veteran two-way forward, though durability is a recurring concern.

George is as much a media figure as a star: he co-hosts the popular 'Podcast P with Paul George,' has a Nike signature line, and dabbled in the 2012 and 2014 Slam Dunk Contests as a high-flyer. He married Daniela Rajic in 2022 and has three children. Off the court he has been candid about mental health, which he cited in explaining a 2026 medication-related suspension.
His career carries both brilliance and 'what if.' Brian Shaw once called him 'the best two-way player in the game,' and ESPN's Pablo Torre dubbed him 'the NBA's most anomalous superstar' — a nod to a résumé of All-NBA and All-Defensive honors that has never reached a Finals. The 2014 leg fracture and repeated recent injuries have made durability the defining subplot of his prime.
A smooth, two-way scoring wing and elite defender — a nine-time All-Star with a durability question.
