Clippers' Paul George could be traded by 'this weekend' with free agency looming: NBA insider

One of the NBA’s household names might soon be on the move.

ESPN’s NBA insider Brian Windhorst offered Monday on “Get Up” that the Clippers could trade star forward Paul George by “this weekend.”

"He could opt-in and get traded by this weekend. That is something that is going to come to a head in the next day or two."“He could opt into his contract and get traded by this weekend,” Windhorst said. “That is something that is going to come to a head in the next day or two if he wants to go with that option, because obviously you’d have to negotiate a trade. Then, the team wouldn’t necessarily need salary cap space.

Windhorst listed re-signing with the Clippers on a new deal as one of George’s three options, along with the opt-in leading into a trade or opting out of his deal to become a free agent.The forward was an All-Star both of the last two years after playing in only 31 games in 2021-22 due to a torn UCL in his right arm.
