Paul George on Anthony Edwards’ comments: It was kind of disrespectful to the game

George Sr. she remembers the minutes before her son was wheeled into the hospital’s operating room. Aaron Mintz, Paul George’s longtime agent, got on the phone with a certain Lakers star waiting to speak to him on the other line. “His agent, Aaron, for some reason, got Mr. Bryant on the phone,” George Sr. recalled. “Kobe. So he gives Paul the phone so he and Paul talk. When he finished, he said, ‘Guess who I was talking to,’ and he’s lying there, smiling now. He said, ‘I just talked to Kobe Bryant.’ And after that they pushed him inside.” -via Clutch Points / September 3, 2024
