Paul George has left the Los Angeles Clippers to join the Philadelphia 76ers on a four-year, $212 million deal, after unsuccessful contract negotiations with the Clippers that left him feeling 'stabbed in the back.' His father expressed disappointment, revealing that they had hoped George could join the Los Angeles Lakers instead, although the Lakers had already committed too much money to other players. The possibility of George moving to the Lakers was complicated by salary cap constraints and would have required a sign-and-trade deal, which was not feasible. George's desire for a long-term contract was a key factor in his decision to leave the Clippers, who offered him a three-year deal worth approximately $150 million. As George prepares for the upcoming season, he is poised to face his former team, the Clippers, in what could be a highly competitive matchup. Meanwhile, the Lakers are reportedly still looking to bolster their roster, including potential trades for players like Jonas Valanciunas, despite recent lack of activity.
