Paul George expresses confidence in health following Celtics arrival
Paul George has expressed confidence in his physical health following two seasons impacted by injuries. During his introductory press conference with the Boston Celtics, the 36-year-old stated, “I feel great again,” and indicated he has moved past his previous injury struggles.
George, who joined the Celtics in a trade involving Jaylen Brown, acknowledged the emotional impact of the transaction on the city and the organization. He stated his primary goal is to remain a winning player and help keep the team in championship contention.
Additionally, George will return to wearing jersey number 13, a choice that allows him to utilize the “PG-13” nickname. He previously wore number 24 and number 8 during his career.
