When looking at the box score, one may not be impressed whatsoever by Oklahoma City Thunder star forward Paul George's numbers on Wednesday night against his former team, the Indiana Pacers. However, George was able to come up clutch and seal the 100-95 win at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
In a video posted on Instagram by House of Highlights, George hit two free throws to put the game on ice. With a shower of boos raining down upon him, George calmly hit the second of two free throws before he promptly put his right index finger to his lips. PG13 wants you to now be silent, Pacers fans.
