In an episode of his podcast, the shooting guard revealed this to his father, Paul George Sr. According to him, an infomercial airing on TV back then advertised the product which instantly piqued his interest. 

I don't think moms or pops know that story of me ordering the Holy water. I was probably like 15, 16 years old and this particular infomercial was people having the Holy Ghost based off of this... So, I'm watching this and I'm like, alright well it's worth a try. So, I call in... Two weeks later, they sent me this little Holy water sample... My prayer behind it was I just wanna be an NBA player.

Paul George’s father revealed why son left Los Angeles Clippers

Paul George was an important player on the Los Angeles Clippers roster. Therefore, hopes were high when the franchise entered into contract negotiations with the Palmdale native this offseason. However, it didn’t work out, as both parties failed to reach an agreement.

Following that, George stated that he felt disrespected by the team with the offer presented to him. Now, on the same podcast, his father disclosed the truth behind the guard, leaving LA for Philadelphia. 

I feel like they stabbed us in the back, because I thought Paul did a whole lot for the team... I think he gave them a 110% and what he was asking; it wasn't a whole lot.
Paul George Sr. said

The way his dad sees it, the Clippers betrayed them. The nine-time All-Star had wanted a bigger deal, but the franchise was unwilling to sanction it. In the end, George got the maximum offer from the Philadelphia 76ers. Now, his sights are set on helping the team challenge for another one of his dreams, the NBA title.
