Paul George Not Excited About New Pacers Role

Last updated on Friday, September 25, 2015

(Indianapolis, IN) - Paul George isn’t exactly thrilled about playing power forward this season.

Speaking at the Pacers Foundation golf outing George said of the change, "it's not what I came in the league as. I don't think I'm at that point in my career where I should be changing positions. Guys do that later in their careers when they put on weight or lack physical attributes as far as being quick - I'm still all of that. I don't feel the need to play a different position. Especially come back to a new season, starting fresh again. It's a change. We'll see how it goes."

Meanwhile, the Pacers announced their schedule for when they'll don the Hickory uniforms inspired from the movie Hoosiers. Six of the ten games will be at home, with the first being on November 6th against the Miami Heat.

The Pacers said "Hickory Nights" will also give the organization an opportunity to recognize players, teams and communities that have a significant place in Indiana basketball history.
