Indiana Pacers forward Paul George was told on Jimmy Kimmel that he should change his jersey number to 13 so that his nickname could be PG-13. That is an idea that George laughed about, but it seems that there could be a change coming in the future. It is all just speculation, but George put out some cryptic tweets that has the NBA world talking about a potential jersey number change.
Obviously the word “Trece” is the Spanish word for the number 13. It may all be a big misunderstanding, but George was very clear that there was something coming for the city of Indianapolis. There were many Pacers fans that jumped on the bandwagon of George changing his number, and perhaps those fans are close to getting their wish.
