In recent news, the Los Angeles Clippers have made strides in their offseason plans with Kawhi Leonard signing a three-year, $149.7 million extension. However, the team still faces challenges in re-signing Paul George, who has yet to agree on an extension with the team. Negotiations with George are currently at a standstill, and other teams are reportedly expressing interest in him.
According to sources close to the situation, the Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers are closely monitoring George’s situation. Both teams have the necessary cap space and need for a veteran wing player like George. The Clippers are hesitant to offer George the max deal, as they did not do so with Leonard due to financial constraints and luxury tax implications. As a result, George may explore offers from other teams before making a decision on whether or not to re-sign with the Clippers.
As the offseason progresses, negotiations with George will be critical in determining the Clippers’ roster for next season. The team is also facing uncertainty surrounding Russell Westbrook’s future with the franchise and James Harden’s potential pay cut request. If all four stars can come to an agreement on pay cuts, they may be able to continue playing together in Los Angeles. However, if negotiations fall through or Westbrook decides not to re-sign, it could have major implications for the team’s future success.
In summary, while Kawhi Leonard has signed an extension with the Clippers, there is still work to be done in re-signing Paul George and addressing other roster issues that could impact their ability to compete next season.
