Making himself right at home in his first season with the Thunder, All-Star forward Paul George<\/strong> is already giving back to the community in Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, George crashed a pep rally for the basketball team at Carl Albert High School in Midwest City, Oklahoma. And since the basketball team is heading to the state tournament, George gave the entire squad his signature Nike PG2 “The Moment”<\/strong> <\/a>to hoop in.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis school has an unbelievable tradition in their athletic sports,\u201d George told The Oklahoman’s Erik Horne<\/a> about his generous gift. \u201cPlus, I just wanted to give back to the community, give back to this high school.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI know they have a great chance of winning it all. I just wanted to give them a little boost, a little support for them to go out and have that moment tomorrow night.\u201d<\/p>\n

Talk about a pep rally… earlier today @Yg_Trece<\/a> surprised the students of Carl Albert High School as they readied themselves for a chance at the State Championship. They received All-Star inspiration and a pair of PG\u2019s custom Nike shoes, PG 2\u201d The Moment\u201d. pic.twitter.com\/yqkYPjjGwy<\/a><\/p>\n
