Los Angeles Clippers star Paul George is already showing love to his new team.
A day before his introductory press conference, George posted pictures wearing Clippers gears and colors from head to toe.

It's a great sign for Clippers fans that the star forward has embraced his new team so quickly. It's obvious that George is excited about playing for his hometown and competing for a title alongside Kawhi Leonard.
For years, the Clippers have been viewed as the junior varsity team of Los Angeles. Even when they had seasons in which they performed better than the Lakers, they were overlooked for their lack of success.
The arrival of George and Leonard changes all of that. It can be argued that the Clips now have the most well-rounded roster in the league after adding two top five players to a team that took the Golden State Warriors to six games in the first round of the playoffs last year.
However, George and the Clippers still have to prove they can hang with the big dogs. They aren't the only team that loaded up this offseason, and they just have to look down the hall at STAPLES Center to see that.
All eyes will be on L.A. once again, thanks in part to Paul George.
