Niang's preseason debut: 12 and 8

I need to find a chinese knockoff $15 Niang jersey.

I believe when he came in the game with about 10 minutes left in the 4th, Indiana was up by less than 5 points. From then on, they ran away with it, all while Georges was in the game. He played good, unselfish ball, and took what the D gave him (which was a lot of open 3s). He showed a good pick n roll game, and willingness to pass. I think if he gets the chance, he could make it in the league. It will depend on his defense, obviously.

9:18 Georges Niang defensive rebound 91 - 84
9:07 Georges Niang misses 26-foot three point jumper 91 - 84

3:14 Georges Niang misses 26-foot three point jumper 105 - 92
1:13 Georges Niang makes 25-foot three point jumper (Julyan Stone assists) 110 - 96
1:04 Cheick Diallo offensive Charge (Georges Niang draws the foul) 110 - 96
 
12 & 8 in 19 min, is exactly what teams are hoping for out of their bench players. Hope that continues.
 
Excellent debut for Georges!

Rooting for him against the Bulls (no offense Hoiberg, just dont like Wade Rondo Butler trio).

Yeah, I'm a Bulls fan for life who has never liked Wade or Rondo at all...if Georges gets serious minutes going to be hard to honestly say they're still my favorite team.

Same here. I can't say I'll become a Pacers fan, necessarily, but I'll certainly watch more of them than the Bulls. Management is doing everything they can to make them as unlikeable as possible while making life a living hell for Hoiberg.
