Paul George donates $10,000 to help family buy wheelchair van

Paul George is a natural helper, on and off the hardwood. 

The Indiana Pacers small forward donated $10,000 to the Esterline family to help them purchase a wheelchair-accessible van for their daughter Daisy, who has cerebral palsy. 

A donor named "Paul George" deposited the sum into the family's GoFundMe account Sunday night, according to RTV6. The Pacers organization confirmed the next day that it was in fact their very own George who gave the generous gift.

George was forced from Indiana's season-ending loss to the Memphis Grizzlies with a sore left calf. Head coach Frank Vogel told reporters in the postgame press conference that it was nothing serious.
