Paul George likely to stay in LA?
Brian Windhorst: To my to my mind, there’s only three real options that I can that I know about that Paul George really has. Stay in LA, which I would still put as the highest percentage chance of happening. Stay in LA for similar to what Kawhi got. Opt-in and trade, probably to the Warriors. The Warriors I know are interested in this. Third, sign straight up with the Sixers.

Lawrence Frank discussed Paul George, James Harden negotiations.
The event of George opting out of his contract and reaching unrestricted free agency is a possibility that the Clippers have discussed for several weeks and still seems to be the most likely scenario. pic.twitter.com/5eJu7Ixj5l – 8:05 PM

League sources say the Denver Nuggets, for example, had serious interest recently in the prospect of adding George by way of a possible extend-and-trade with the Clippers (if he chose to go that route). Yet in addition to giving George the max deal he so desires, they also would have had to give up Michael Porter Jr., Zeke Nnaji and a significant amount of draft capital. The Nuggets value their draft picks perhaps as much as any other contender in the league, and so their interest ended there. But that situation is informative for a team such as the Warriors, who would surely prefer to add George while not giving up any other assets (other than matching money). -via New York Times / June 28, 2024
