"Following a major leap throughout the start of his sophomore season, averaging 14.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.9 assists, while shooting an efficient 46.5% from field goal range and 40.0% from beyond the arc, it's safe to say that George has already exceeded expectations that he entered the league with."
"As a hidden gem in the back half of the first-round in the 2024 NBA Draft, George's rookie campaign suggested that Washington may have founded a legitimate role player that could serve as a pivotal piece to the team's rebuild in the long-term."
"However, the Miami product's offseason work has proven that he may be more than just a rotational player; in fact, his leap has suggested that there could be a legitimate chance that he finds himself on an NBA All-Star roster in the near future."
"Considering former Wizard CJ McCollum's high praise for the forward, it only goes to show that George's potential may be higher than originally anticipated when Washington took a swing on his skillset a couple offseasons ago."
Kyshawn George averaged 14.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.9 assists while shooting 46.5% from the field and 40.0% from three during the start of his sophomore season.
