I know he only played for us for about a year, but saw this story about our former starting PG in the finals:
NBA veteran George Hill is at peace on the court or in the country
This article makes me very jealous.
> On a warm October day, NBA free agent guard George Hill stood proud and at peace while overlooking 900 acres of land with enough exotic animals to make a zoo jealous.
> Hill’s “Scenic Hills Ranch” is actually almost 2½ times the size of downtown Indianapolis where the 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend is taking place. The 15-year NBA veteran’s riches helped him purchase this vast land about 45 minutes from where he once played with the Spurs in San Antonio. On the property, there are more than 1,000 different animals including impalas, zebras, elk, stags, antelope, sables, deer, kangaroos, oryx, ostrich, horses, red lechwes and more.
> “You hear any cars?” Hill asked Andscape on Oct. 25. “You don’t hear any cars. You don’t hear anyone talking. You can’t hear the day-to-day life of living like in the inner city. You hear nothing but air, animals and birds. The way this wind is blowing, it blows like this every day. When you’re up here on top of the hill. If you go down the valley, it gets hot. Yeah, but up here, the wind blows like this constantly. So just relaxing. When you are having a bad day, you just come up here and it’s a different kind of music.
