NBA: What All 30 Teams Should Be Thankful For In 2015-16

Indiana Pacers

What They’re Thankful For: Paul George‘s recovery 

Many didn’t know what to expect from the Indiana Pacers this season because of two things. One, no one knew how the team was going to respond to the change in system. And two, because no one knew if Paul George was ever going to be Paul George again. Through the first month of the season, I think it’s safe to say that he’s back.

George is averaging 25 points, nine rebounds and five assists per game this season. Oh, and he has a career best 24.1 PER this season so far. Yep. He’s back.
