Paul George (Indiana Pacers) – 1,211,318 votes
fanatix says: Dare we say that Paul George is a not-so mini LeBron James?
While the comparison is there to be made, and it’s yet to be seen if George can get to the lofty heights his fellow Eastern All-Star has risen to, the 23-year-old deserve to be in the mix this season.
With players in the NBA under such scrutiny it is unusual to see them “burst onto the scene” in a way George has in the past two years.
While anybody who saw him play prior to this saw the potential he had in him, the fact he has achieved much of it just three years into his career, points to a high-performing career arc.
George will get out and run the breaks, launch from three, finish dunks and find teammates this All-Star game, making him a lock for the foreseeable future.
