Celtics' Paul George: Bounces back Tuesday
George registered 20 points (8-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 36 minutes in Tuesday's 125-124 overtime win over the Nets.
George delivered a well-rounded fantasy performance, contributing seven rebounds and seven assists despite struggling from three-point range, and this was a clear bounce-back effort after his 16-point output (5-14 FG) against the Bulls on Monday. His 36-minute workload and 16 field-goal attempts highlight his continued involvement in Boston's offense alongside Jayson Tatum. While his scoring may fluctuate, George's ability to contribute across multiple categories gives him a relatively stable fantasy floor. Even if his scoring numbers are inconsistent, and considering he's not likely to repeat the 38-point performance he had in the opener, it's worth noting that George has established himself as a reliable, consistent scoring weapon for Boston with at least 15 points in each of his four appearances so far.

Celtics' Paul George: Struggles with shot
George amassed 16 points (5-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Monday's 134-99 win over the Bulls.
George struggled inside the arc but connected on three triples as Boston cruised to a comfortable victory. His playing time was limited by the lopsided score, and he committed four turnovers. The veteran forward has scored between 15 and 16 points in consecutive outings following his 38-point season opener.

Celtics' Paul George: Strong effort in victory
George had 15 points (6-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals across 34 minutes during Friday's 107-103 victory over the Knicks.
George came back to earth a bit after dropping 38 points in his season debut, but he still delivered a strong all-around performance Friday. The Celtics have their first back-to-back set of the season on tap for Monday against the Bulls and Tuesday versus the Nets, and it'll be interesting to see if the 36-year-old forward will play both ends after sitting out back-to-backs at times last year with the 76ers.

Celtics' Paul George: Dominates in regular-season opener
George tallied 38 points (12-21 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, five steals and three assists across 31 minutes in Tuesday's 121-113 loss to the Pistons.
George turned in an efficient shooting performance, particularly from three-point range, en route to a game-high 38 points in his regular-season debut with the Celtics. The veteran forward provided a well-rounded stat line, as he led all players in triples and steals while finishing as the Celtics' second-leading rebounder. George will look to remain highly productive when Boston hosts New York on Friday.

Celtics' Paul George: In line to play Tuesday
George (rest) is in line to play Tuesday versus Detroit.
George didn't suit up for Friday's 125-120 preseason overtime win over Philadelphia to rest, though he is anticipated to be ready to go Tuesday versus the Pistons. The 36-year-old appeared in only 37 regular-season games for the 76ers in 2025-26, averaging 17.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.7 steals over 30.7 minutes per outing. Now paired with Jayson Tatum (rest), George still has All-Star upside, but he will need to figure out how to stay on the floor.

Celtics' Paul George: Sitting out preseason finale
George (rest) won't play in Friday's preseason finale against the 76ers, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
George and the rest of Boston's regulars won't suit up for the final exhibition but should be good to go for Tuesday's regular-season opener against the Pistons. George registered 13 points (3-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and five steals over 25 minutes during his Celtics debut against the 76ers last Saturday.

Celtics' Paul George: Elite defensively in Celtics debut
George registered 13 points (3-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and five steals over 25 minutes during the Celtics' 144-106 preseason win over the 76ers on Saturday.
George didn't have the most efficient night offensively, but he demonstrated his defensive chops during Saturday's win, with four of his game-high five steals taking place in the first half. The veteran forward was the Celtics' return for Jaylen Brown in the offseason, and it'll be interesting to see how George and Jayson Tatum fit together early on in the 2026-27 season. George figures to have his preseason reps limited before the Celtics' regular-season opener against the Pistons on Tuesday, Oct. 20.

Celtics' Paul George: Coach praises his experience
Head coach Joe Mazzulla praised George's experience Tuesday, per Justin Turpin of WEEI.com.
George has big shoes to fill in Boston this season, stepping into the role as one of Jayson Tatum's running mates following Jaylen Brown's exit. Staying on the court has been a major concern for George, who has made at least 70 regular-season appearances just once in his past seven seasons, but he should push for mid-round fantasy value when healthy after averaging at least 16.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game in back-to-back years for the 76ers.
