Paul George was in no mood to talk about his future following Sunday's Game 4 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Indiana Pacers small forward was noncommittal when asked whether he plans to stay with the franchise long term, telling reporters he hasn't had time to even consider free agency.
"I ain't even at that point yet, Bob," George said. "Next question."
A free agent in 2018, George is reportedly "hell-bent" on joining his hometown Los Angeles Lakers at the end of next season should Indiana fail to contend for a title.
Pacers head coach Nate McMillan revealed prior to Game 4 that "there could be a lot of major changes" this summer if Indiana failed to move past the first round.
