As NBA free agency quickly approaches, LA Clippers star Paul George remains without an extension. Over the last several days, numerous reports have suggested George could opt into his contract with the Clippers and pursue a trade if he prefers to land elsewhere.
With George seeking a contract the Clippers are seemingly not offering, teams around the league could prepare for an opt-in and trade scenario - including the New York Knicks. "Another trusted source has advised me to keep the Knicks on the list as a potential trade suitor for George if the All-NBA swingman indeed opts into the final season of his current contract at $48.8 million," Stein added. "That step would position George to push for a trade to another team."
New York is always considered in play for available stars, and while they have had their reservations about George in the past, perhaps this is a scenario they would consider dealing for him.Joey Linn is a credentialed writer covering the NBA for Sports Illustrated's FanNation.
