OH MY, PG caught a body!
In the early stages of the NBA season, the Indiana Pacers were severe under-achievers, playing below .500 basketball. We were expecting this to be Paul George’s break-out season, as he enters the prime years of his career. However, even with multiple off-season acquisitions, the team didn’t get off to a good start for their 2017 campaign. Luckily, Indy managed to go on a recent streak since Thanksgiving Weekend, becoming one of the hottest team in the entire league.
As they creep up in standings, with hopes of making a bid for first-round home court advantage, they were host Sunday evening against the Houston Rockets. With James Harden having a horrendous shooting night, following his 51-point triple double just 48 hours before, Paul George left his imprint on the game and Clint Capela’s soul. During the middle of the third quarter, PG-13 elevated in traffic for an insane 1-hand slam on Houston’s starting center.
Take a look at the sick play above, as the Pacers capped off the game in a 120-101 blowout.
