Pacers trade Paul George to Thunder
The Indiana Pacers have traded Paul George to the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.
In return for George, the Pacers will get former Indiana Hoosier, Victor Oladipo and second-year player Domantas Sabonis. It's a solid haul for the Pacers, who get four years of control over both players. The Thunder will get at least a year of George playing alongside Russell Westbrook, which immediately puts the Thunder back in must-watch territory in the West.
George is coming off averaging a career-high 23.7 points per game, to go with 6.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.6 steals, over 35.9 minutes per game. He posted a .534 effective field goal percentage and his nERD of 3.8 ranked 57th in the NBA.
