With so much movement in the NBA off-season so far, it feels like Paul George's departure from Indiana to Oklahoma City was so long ago.

For those out there that still haven't come around to the fact that George will be playing along side MVP Russell Westbrook next season, Thursday (AEDT) may have been the moment they needed.

PG13 wore his new jersey in a photo op for the team.


On Wednesday, he arrived in OKC for the first time to a hero's welcome. 


George has one year remaining on his contract, but the Thunder are keen on making the All-Star apart of their future for years to come.
