Paul George buys and donates No. 24 merchandise to his old high school
Unfortunately, it will be a while before we see Paul George in an Indiana Pacers uniform. When he returns, we will have to get used to seeing George in a different uniform number than the No. 24 we have become accustomed to seeing him wear.
George will be switching to No. 13, giving us the opportunity to refer to him as PG-13.
Before the new jerseys can be made for sale, there is the small matter of the remaining old jerseys being purchased from Adidas. Consider that done. George acquired the last of the merchandise and found several fans happy to accept them.
The recipients are students and staff at his former high school, Knight High School in Palmdale, California.
Palmdale will always have my heart!

As you can imagine, several photos were taken by those who are now in possession of Paul George items. Luckily for us, George shared several of them.
