Your PN can not be inside of a prepositional phrase, so that eliminates all words in "of George's favorite team sports"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is team

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sports. A predicate nominative is a noun following a linking verb. The linking verb is favorite, therefore, sports is the nominative, because it is a noun following the linking verb.
