Paul George

The Los Angeles Clippers were able to make their first Western Conference Finals in franchise history this season. Despite a knee injury to Kawhi Leonard putting a damper on Los Angeles’ playoff run, the performance of Paul George was a positive development for fans of the Clippers.

However, Kawhi Leonard has a player option this offseason that could alter the entire outlook of the organization. If he chooses to leave — which I don’t think happens — then George could become available via trade.

Or if Leonard believes he needs a new running mate, Los Angeles could move Paul George in exchange for a new superstar.

In his two seasons with the Clippers, George has remained as one of the top two-way wing players in the NBA. The seven-time All-Star recorded 26.9 points, 9.6 rebounds, 5.4 assists, and one steal per game en route to Los Angeles’ run to the Conference Finals.

Plenty of teams would love to acquire a player like Paul George that can contribute on both ends of the floor.

Given the fact I don’t see Kawhi Leonard departing in free agency or asking for George to be moved, I’d say there’s a microscopic chance that Paul George is traded this offseason.
