Inside Paul George’s relationship with Daniela George Rajic, including romantic proposal during 30th birthday vacation
PAUL George has had an All-Star career on the NBA court as one of the best players of his generation.
And he enjoys a strong relationship at home with his wife, Daniela George Rajic, who he met a decade ago.
George, 33, was drafted in 2010 by the Indiana Pacers as a bright young prospect.
He quickly became one of the elite players in the NBA and made his first All-Star Game in 2013.
And that year was also special off the court as he began dating Daniela.
Daniela has been a constant in Paul's life with his basketball career taking him from the Indiana Pacers to the Oklahoma City Thunder and now the Los Angeles Clippers.

She said yes, but George got the ring size wrong and it only fit on her pinkie.
Daniela wrote on Instagram: "You may have gotten my ring size wrong but you get everything else right.
"Thank you for making this my best birthday yet. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you and celebrate many more!"
The pair have three children together - two daughters and a son.
They tied the knot at an intimate ceremony in California in June 2022.
The following month, they held another wedding at a villa in Italy.
NBA players such as Patterson, Patrick Beverley, and Karl-Anthony Towns all made the trip across the Atlantic for it.
