Golden State Warriors jersey history - No. 19 - Devean George (2009-10)
The Golden State Warriors have had over 600 players don the more than 60 jersey numbers used by their players over the more than 75 years of existence the team has enjoyed in its rich and storied history. Founded in 1946 during the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- a precursor league of the NBA) era, the team has called home the cities of Philadelphia, San Francisco, Oakland, and even San Diego. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Warriors Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. For this article, we begin with the 11th of 13 players who wore the No. 19 jersey for the Warriors. That player would be Golden State forward alum Devean George. After ending his college career at Augsburg College, George was picked up with the 23rd overall selection of the 1999 NBA Draft by the Los Angeles Lakers. The Minneapolis, Minnesota native would play the first seven seasons of his pro career with the Lakers, and three more with the Dallas Mavericks before finishing his NBA career with a final season with the Dubs after being dealt there via the Toronto Raptors in 2009. During his time suiting up for the Warriors, George wore only jersey No. 19 and put up 5.4 points and 2.5 rebounds per game. All stats and data courtesy of Basketball Reference.

‘Just Friends' Turned into a Summer Fling, Then Something More
In October 2014, Dr. George Anthony Russo II was making his way from Scituate, Mass., where he was staying with his parents, to Orlando, Fla., for a new job. Along the way, he stopped in Mahopac, N.Y., to visit a friend. The two went to a casino, and as luck would have it, Dr. Russo won $4,000 on a slot machine. This meant he could afford to go to Los Angeles to visit Maggie Amelia Weston, with whom he had just had a 'summer fling.' Dr. Russo and Ms. Weston met that June on her first day working as a hostess at Wahlburgers — a burger chain owned by brothers Donnie, Mark and Paul Wahlberg — in Hingham, Mass. Dr. Russo, who goes by Gidge and was not yet a doctor, was already employed there. He recalled asking co-workers, 'Who's the new girl?' Ms. Weston noticed him too: 'I remember he had a certain confidence and a certain tall, dark and handsome quality.' She had a boyfriend at the time, though the two were on the verge of breaking up, she said. In late June 2014, Dr. Russo invited Ms. Weston 'to hang out on his boat and join a bonfire on the beach with his friends,' Ms. Weston said, who by then was single, which she 'casually mentioned' to Dr. Russo. A week later, he joined her to watch 'Game of Thrones' at her parents' home in Hingham, where she was living for the summer. Still, as 'just friends,' she said, because she was moving to L.A. that fall to pursue her dream of becoming 'a star' in film and television. 'I didn't want to form any attachments that would keep me from my dreams,' she said. 'But Gidge made it very hard.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

How Royal Kids Enjoy Their Summer Holidays
Summertime is magical for kids, and the royal kids are no different. Prince William and Kate Middleton's three kids, Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, don't have to return to school until September, so they are living it up with family time, international travel, and a special stay at Balmoral Castle, where the late Queen Elizabeth II enjoyed going every year. Of course, they also likely had a big celebration for Prince George's birthday in July! Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's kids Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, also have exciting summer plans, with trips to Disneyland and other fun outings. They may be royalty, but they love a lot of the things we do: like playing cards, watching sports, going to the beach, and spending as much family time as they can get. After all, summer only comes once a year, so might as well make it a good one! Discover some of the long-standing traditions and fun adventures the royal kids have planned this summer. More from SheKnows Princess Diana's Granddaughter Princess Charlotte Stole Her Whole Face in a Resurfaced Childhood Photo Best of SheKnows 20 Best Brands to Shop for Trendy Hipster Kids' Clothes This Summer Celebrity Parents Whose Kids Have Big Age Gaps Rocky77, Aquaman, & More Unique Celebrity Baby Names Attending Wimbledon It wouldn't be summer for the Waleses without a visit to Wimbledon! Prince George and Princess Charlotte often go to sporting events, including the annual tennis match held in London. On July 13, the siblings attended a match with their parents, where they looked so chic and grown up in photos smiling and clapping. Trooping The Colour 2025 For the royals, the annual Trooping the Colour event in June is the unofficial kickoff to summer. This is when the country celebrates the birthday of the sovereign, and the royal family rides in a parade and watches the RAF flypast from the balcony at Buckingham Palace. It's always fun to see the kids interacting at this public event. Visiting Balmoral Castle Every year in August, the royal family heads to Balmoral Castle in Scotland for some treasured country time. This tradition has happened for over 100 years, since Prince Albert bought the estate for Queen Victoria in 1852. Queen Elizabeth II famously enjoyed summer here, and even Princess Diana would go with her kids Prince William and Prince Harry as kids. Now, William and Middleton take their three kids for summers here before the fall 2025 school semester begins in September. Royal expert Jennie Bond told OK! in 2024, 'Just like in the late queen's reign, time at Balmoral is family time. And, if the King gets the chance, he will relish the chance to hang out with his grandchildren by reading them stories, teaching them about the wildlife around them, playing cards, and enjoying picnics … weather permitting!' Enjoying Family Time at Amner Hall The summer is sure to include plenty of laid back, kid-friendly experiences at their country home of Amner Hall. Middleton shared a video last September marking the end of her chemotherapy journey, where Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis were all seen hanging out in the woods, climbing trees, playing on a swing, climbing on logs, having a picnic, playing cards, spending time with dogs, and smiling with each other. It looks like a regular summer of fun! Stag-Hunting Prince George turned 12 in July, which is the traditional age that boys participate in a gruesome ritual. Royal author Duncan Larcombe shared that the young royal might be required to take part in a 'controversial pastime long enjoyed by his ancestors,' per Express. 'The Palace has refused to comment on claims that Prince George will be initiated into one of the slightly more gruesome royal traditions this summer,' Larcombe wrote. He added, 'It was reported that he will join his father on a stag-hunting shoot while they visit the Balmoral estate this month. Traditionally, the blood of a hunter's first kill is spread on their face, a ritual that goes back centuries.' Ugh, ew! If he is made to do it, he will join in a long line of royals who have participated, including his dad and his uncle Prince Harry. Going on Beach Trips & Family Vacays Royal insider Bedell Smith told PEOPLE in June 2025 that the family enjoys spending alone time in Norfolk, where they will go to the beach. 'They have a quiet life out in Norfolk, with a lot of freedom to go to places like the beach, and no one bothers them,' Smith shared. She guessed that this summer, the Wales may also go on family vacation to the Isles of Scilly or the Caribbean, which they have done in the past. Prince William once revealed that Prince George loves scuba diving, so we bet that'll be on the vacation itinerary as well! Celebrating Prince George's Birthday Kate Middleton always makes her kids' birthdays special, and this July, the family celebrated Prince George's 12th birthday! Middleton revealed her birthday tradition on a BBC program in 2019, per The Independent: 'It's become a bit of a tradition that I stay up 'til midnight with ridiculous amounts of cake mix and icing and I make far too much,' she said. 'But I love it.' Prince George also posed for his official portait and took a silly video with his siblings. It's much less fun than the homemade cake, but he'll appreciate it one day! Watching Sports Princess Charlotte recently traveled to Switzerland to cheer on England at the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 final alongside her dad Prince William. Prince George also enjoys watching live sports with his dad, so we bet a lot more of that will happen over the summer. Going to Disneyland Going to Disneyland is a royal tradition, one that Princess Diana did with her sons Prince William and Prince Harry. Now, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have carried on that tradition with their kids Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. In June 2025, the Sussexes took their kids to Disneyland, which Markle called 'pure joy.' She shared a compilation video of the family of four enjoying rides, taking family photos, and meeting Elsa. They event went on the same Splash Mountain ride that Princess Diana took Prince William and Prince Harry on when they were little in 1993. Soaking up Family Time No matter the specifics of what they do, one thing is for sure: all the royals will be soaking up as much family time as they can over the summer holidays. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are planning on some family togetherness as well, with a source telling InTouch in June 2025, 'Meghan is leading the charge and planning all sorts of getaways for them, some with the kids and some just the two of them,' the insider told the outlet. 'She wants to go to Napa with Harry, do wine tastings, she wants to go to Big Sur and other parts of Northern California with the kids. A trip to see her close friend in Colorado is in the books. And she and Harry are even talking about visiting Canada.' Solve the daily Crossword
