“Freak accidents happen. USA Basketball doesn’t deserve any criticism from this.”
Talking for the first time since his injury (you know, besides Twitter), Paul George answered questions for the media earlier to clear some things up about his lower right leg fracture two weeks ago and the state of the Pacers for next season.
He explained how he managed to remain calm through the injury before his body went into shock, as well describing the exact feeling he experienced in his leg at the time. He also encouraged fans and told them not to be disappointed or lose hope for next year, because they still have a competitive squad, with the help of Coach Vogel.
