Indiana Pacers forward Paul George is relishing his return to the court as he prepares to make his comeback from a horrific leg injury.
The 24-year-old broke his leg before the FIBA World Cup last summer in a scrimmage with Team USA and was expected to be ruled out for the entire 2014-15 NBA season.
However, George has made significant strides in his recovery and will make his comeback against the Miami Heat on Sunday after just seven months on the sidelines.
He told reporters: "It's almost like being drafted again and getting thrown back out there again for the first time. It's that same feel."
The Pacers are 33-43 in their season and are currently fourth in the Central Division of the Eastern Conference.
