Paul George and the Indiana Pacers need help. We know that.
We now also know that Larry Bird has put the 2017 first-round pick on the trade block in an effort to improve the Pacers.
ESPN’s Chris Haynes reported the news late on Friday night.
In an attempt to secure help for All-Star forward Paul George, the Indiana Pacers have made their 2017 first-round pick available in a trade, league sources told ESPN.
In what is considered to be a deep draft, the Pacers are hoping that such an asset would translate to the addition of either an established wing or established frontline player, sources told ESPN.
