Those who can't do, tweet.

Paul George may not be able to suit up for the Indiana Pacers thanks to the broken leg he suffered with USA Basketball this summer, but he's been around the team plenty.

That includes his new roll as the team's public relations intern, apparently. Pacers director of media relations David Benner tweeted on Wednesday that George is now a credentialed member of the Pacers' PR staff. And yes, he's going by his nickname, Young Trece.

Hey, if it keeps George feeling a part of the team and engaged while he can't play, this isn't a bad idea. Actually, the Pacers should rotate George through all kinds of in-house internships while he recovers, and make videos for in-game presentations about his experiences.
