Earlier tonight, the Indiana Pacers stunned the NBA world when they traded superstar Paul George for a pair of role players in Victor Oladipo and Domantas Sabonis. According to ESPN’s Jeff Goodman, the Pacers previously rejected a huge offer from the Celtics on draft night that would have included three first round picks and two starters.

Celtics offer on draft night for Paul George, per league source, was 3 first-round picks (not the Nets pick next year or the Lakers/Kings pick) and two starters (Crowder being one).
Pacers fans weren’t happy with the deal.
