George explained why he chose to stay in Oklahoma City. He pointed out how the city welcomed him from his very first day. Apart from which, he firmly believes that he is capable of creating something in Oklahoma, along with Russell Westbrook. In part, George said:
“It’s more than just loyalty, it’s about doing what I think is right. I feel this is the best and perfect opportunity to cement myself and bring a championship where it hasn’t been brought. They’ve welcomed me with open arms, and I want them to feel that hype that I have toward what I think we can accomplish there. I want to be part of something that’s special and something that I’ve created. In Oklahoma, I think there is something I can create there.”
He also shared his thoughts on his budding relationship with Westbrook, both as a teammate and a friend:
“Aside from being one of the best human beings I’ve been around, (Russell Westbrook’s) approach to the game is what guys who want to be a part of and build something with. Russ is somebody I can win with and vice versa.”
