Final 2025-26 Philadelphia 76ers Player Grades: Paul George
This article evaluates Paul George's performance during the 2025-26 NBA season with the Philadelphia 76ers, assigning him a final grade of C-plus. The Sixers finished with a 45-37 record, securing the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference before defeating the Boston Celtics in the first round and losing to the New York Knicks in the second. George's season was marked by significant availability issues; he played in only 37 games due to offseason knee surgery and a 25-game suspension imposed in January. Despite these setbacks, his on-court production was notable. He averaged 17.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game, shooting 39.2% from three-point range. His performance improved post-suspension, and he was crucial in the playoffs, particularly during the series against Boston. However, his effectiveness waned in the second round against New York. The analysis highlights that while George provided valuable wing play when active, his limited availability remains a critical concern for the team's future success in the 2026-27 season.
