Paul George flashes middle finger to fan in dominant Philly return

· Yahoo Sports

Paul George is enjoying a resurgent season with the Boston Celtics, and Tuesday he got a chance to prove the Philadelphia 76ers wrong for trading him. In his first game in Philly following the blockbuster Jaylen Brown deal that sent George and draft picks to Boston, George thoroughly outplayed Brown.

George scored 36 points and knocked down six 3s to help thump the 76ers, 123-101. Brown, meanwhile, had only 13 points with a team-low plus/minus of -27.

Philly fans weren't too pleased to see George spoil their night, and George was prepared to match their energy. After a fan apparently rolled a ball in George's direction instead of passing it to him, George flipped him the middle finger.

“He looked me dead in my eyes, dropped the ball on the ground as if I'm a dog to go fetch or go get it, instead of passing the ball to me like a normal fan would do," George said. "So then I rolled him a middle finger in return.”

George's dominant performance was a metaphorical middle finger to Philadelphia, so it's fitting he capped the night with a real one.
