During Saturday’s 106-92 win over the Clippers, Paul George got loose on a fastbreak and threw down a crazy 360 windmill slam dunk!
George has shown his high flying ability often during games, so much so the league has asked that he join the Slam Dunk Contest during All-Star weekend. George is basically a shoe-in to make the All-Star Eastern Conference roster but has declined to participate in the other activities.
“I don’t want to add to it by doing extra stuff,” George said, responding to a comment that rest rarely happens during hectic All-Star weekends.
George also holds a little resentment after his last stint in the dunk contest. After returning from the 2012 All-Star weekend, George told The Indianapolis Star: “(Not to) take nothing away from the dunk contest, (but) it was a joke. I guess whoever had the biggest celebrity involved in their dunk was going to be the winner. I guess I should have tried to reach out to some people.”
Ironically now he would be one of the biggest celebrities involved but I guess he’s already over it.
