Paul George on free agency: 'I ain't even at that point yet...Next question'
Indiana Pacers star Paul George isn't thinking about his upcoming NBA free agency, he told reporters in the postgame press conference.
A reporter asked, "Do you want to stay in Indiana?" and whether his All-NBA team situation will have an impact on his decision.
"I ain't even at that point yet, Bob," George said. "Next question."
Watch George's answer below:
If George gets a nod from the media voters for the All-NBA team selection, he would be eligible for a big pay raise. An All-NBA selection would make George eligible for a contract extension worth upward of $200 million, which is around $70 million more than he otherwise could receive, with the exact numbers depending on the NBA salary cap.
George finished Game 4 shooting 5-for-21 with 15 points, seven rebounds and six assists.
