Where did Paul George say he got his Broncos fandom?
George put it on the Denver Broncos' own team site in February 2016, saying he had been a fan since he was "about maybe 9, 10 years old." The Broncos had won Super Bowl XXXII in 1998 (the 1997 season), the year he turned 8, and Super Bowl XXXIII in 1999 (the 1998 season), the year he turned 9.
FOX Sports also described him as the biggest Denver Broncos fan in Indiana, in a piece about him spending time with his favorite team during the opening week of an NFL season. He was playing for the Indiana Pacers then, and Indiana is not Denver.
Does it match where Paul George is from?
Not in any geographic sense. George was born in Palmdale, California, on May 2, 1990, and went to Knight High School there before playing at Fresno State. Nothing in his background connects him to Denver, and he has traced the fandom to football with his father instead.
