Paul George has officially joined the Philadelphia 76ers.
First Points in a New Jersey:
It took until the second quarter for George to score his first points, and before that, he missed five shots and had a turnover. But what matters is that the ball finally went through the hoop, marking his first successful shot as a 76er.

Expectations for Success:
Daryl Morey and Elton Brand must be thrilled to see this moment. The team signed George with a hefty four-year contract worth $211.5 million, hoping he will help Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid lead them to their first NBA Championship since 1983.
Fans believe this could be the year they make history again.
In his career before joining Philly, playing for teams like the Pacers, Thunder, and Clippers over 14 seasons, George averaged impressive stats: 20.8 points per game along with solid rebounds and assists numbers.
Let’s hope this new chapter brings excitement!
