#7 Paul George, Oklahoma City Thunder

A solid all-around All-Star starts anew with the best teammates he’s ever had. He must adapt, adjust his game and mindset, and hit the ground running for the Thunder. After suffering the horrific injury while on Team USA’s training camp in 2014, his progress stalled. He had made back to back appearances in the Eastern Conference finals before that, battling LeBron James and the high-flying Miami Heat.

He is fueled by the talk that he lost a step while in rehab. George continues to make bold statements about going for the top prize. This could be the year that it comes to fruition.
