Both paul george

The Los Angeles Clippers: Philadelphia 76ers and Paul George have reached an agreement to bring the nine-time NBA all-star to the 'City of Brotherly love', say reports.

George will sign a four year maximum deal with the 76ers which will amount to 212 million US Dollars. His deal includes a player option for the final season in 2027-28, returning him to the Eastern Conference to team up with MVP center Joel Embiid and All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey in an attempt to dethrone the NBA champion Boston Celtics, according to a report by ESPN.

The Los Angeles Clippers and Paul George had been in conversations for months but a deal never materialised as it is said the two parties could not agree on the length of the contract. George was said to be insisting on a four-year deal whereas the Clippers wanted to keep him on for only three more years, the report said.
