Kevin Pritchard 2017 Draft Press Conference
June 23, 2017 - Pacers President of Basketball Operations addresses Paul George's future with the franchise and Indiana's picks in the 2017 NBA Draft.
What does it feel like when your star player, who for months had given you the impression he wants to stay put and help build a winning team, suddenly sends word through his agent that he wants out?
"A gut-punch," Kevin Pritchard said. "A total gut-punch."
The Pacers' President of Basketball Operations spoke with the media for the first time Thursday about Paul George's desire to leave the Pacers and finish his career elsewhere, preferably in Los Angeles with the Lakers.
