Paul George, Karl-Anthony Towns Praise Shaedon Sharpe

Despite not making an All Rookie Team, Portland Trail Blazers wing Shaedon Sharpe has turned a few heads during his first season, including those of some prominent peers.

Los Angeles Clippers wing Paul George highlighted Portland’s rookie sensation this week on his Podcast P podcast alongside Minnesota Timberwolves big Karl-Anthony Towns.

George: This guy, he surprised me, I’m always surprised by young talent because I’ll see it and I’m like, “Damn, I didn’t know you didn’t have that kind of game.” Shaedon Sharpe, I thought he was just a dunker.
