Paul George has claimed that the Indiana Pacers are enjoying success in the NBA because they have matured as a team.
George scored 24 points on Saturday night as the Pacers beat the Brooklyn Nets 96-91 and the 23-year-old believes that those kind of results prove how much progress they have made.
"We executed. That's the maturity for this team," George told reporters. "Years ago we would have lost that game.
"But we're growing as a team. We're getting mature and we're finding ways to win games."
The Pacers have won their first seven games this season.
