Paul George: 'I will sign new Indiana Pacers deal'

Indiana Pacers shooting guard Paul George reveals that he will sign a contract extension before the start of the new NBA season.

Paul George has confirmed that he will sign a contract extension with the Indiana Pacers before the start of the 2013-14 NBA season.

The shooting guard, who is currently set to become a restricted free agent next summer, previously claimed that he would find it "tough to say no" to a move to the Los Angeles Lakers.

However, the 23-year-old has now told the Indianapolis Star: "[A long-term contract] is going to get done. There will be a deal signed and sealed on the table before the season. We're on the same page."

Pacers president Larry Bird added: "We are working on it now. We've got a way set up where we definitely think we can get something done, but it's going to have to work for both parties."

The Pacers have until October 31 to agree a deal with George.
