Indiana Pacers guard Paul George looks to be in better spirits this week after suffering a horrific leg injury last week in Las Vegas during the USA Basketball Showcase game because he bought himself quite the get-well gift.

George is the proud new owner of a Ferrari.

“Shoutout my guy @roadstarrmotorsports for gettin me right again. He hooked this one up! Although I can’t drive for a while I can still look at it!!! #FerrariBoyz #458 #OneofOne #CantWaitToGetBetter #AlwaysWantedOne #Italia #DreamCar #NowIGotIt #Blessed,” George posted on Instagram with a picture of the new ride.

Sports Illustrated reports the Ferrari 458 has a base price tag of $257,000.
