During a comfortable victory by the United States men’s basketball team over China in their opening game of the Rio Olympics, Paul George was the victim of a crossover by Zhao Jiwei that sent the Pacers star to the floor. The following day, one of George’s teammates in Indiana had jokes.
Lavoy Allen took to his Twitter account on Sunday saying he was going to start up a collection so George’s ankles can be laid to rest.

In case you’re wondering if George had a response, he did. The three-time NBA All-Star made use of the middle finger emoji.

After the game, George denied getting crossed up and gave his side of the story. You can see what he said here. I don’t think Lavoy Allen is buying it.
