George Takes His Game Out Front

Apparently PG can stand for "point guard," too.

Paul George played point guard in the U.S. Olympic team's 106-57 victory over the Chinese Olympic team Sunday, displaying the sort of length, athleticism and versatility the team will take to Rio for the Olympic Games.

Unlike Friday's opening exhibition victory over Argentina, George started in the game before a sellout crowd at Staples Center in Los Angeles. He wasn't a factor offensively, as he had been then with 18 points, but made his presence known as a perimeter defender throughout.

Former Pacers star Reggie Miller, who worked the game as a broadcast analyst on the NBA TV telecast, was enthusiastic about the team's new look.
