Will Paul George Join the Sixers? Free Agency Battle Sets Stage for Potential Clippers Defector

Paul George has opted out of his contract with the Clippers, making him a free agent and potentially opening up the possibility of him joining the Sixers. The Sixers are reportedly planning to aggressively pursue George, with many seeing them as a legitimate threat to lure him away from Los Angeles.

George is expected to meet with several teams during free agency, including the Clippers, Sixers, and Magic. The Warriors, who were rumored to be interested in George, are now out of the running due to salary cap constraints.

According to Law Murray, a beat writer for the Clippers, a source close to George believes he is unlikely to return to Los Angeles and is seriously considering leaving the team. With their focus on building a flexible roster this summer, adding a player like George could significantly strengthen the Sixers’ lineup.

At 34 years old, George had an impressive season with the Clippers last year, averaging over 22 points per game and shooting over 41 percent from three-point range. His offensive skills and defensive capabilities make him an attractive addition to any team looking for help on both sides of the ball.

The Sixers have the ability to offer George a lucrative contract during this free agency period. With four years left on his contract at $212 million dollars max offer on table; it will be interesting to see if Philadelphia can successfully entice him into joining their ranks.
