The biggest prize in free agency last year was Paul George. After the Los Angeles Clippers decided not to extend George, he hit the free agent market for the first time in his career. The Philadelphia 76ers decided to bring George in and pair him with both Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey.

George finishes the season averaging 16.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in 41 games. His injuries started in the preseason when he suffered a hyperextension of his left knee that forced him to miss the first five games of the regular season. He hyperextended the same knee in November, which cost him three games.

Jalen Green and Jabari Smith Jr. had 30 points apiece and the Houston Rockets rallied for a 144-137 overtime victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night, extending their season-best winning streak to seven games.

Jabari Smith Jr. scored 30 points and Houston survived against the injury-depleted Philadelphia 76ers with a comeback for the Rockets' seventh victory in a row.
