The Knicks and Clippers have reportedly engaged on a potential trade centered around star wing Paul George, according to Knicks reporter Ian Begley of SNY.
Begley noted that it is unknown whether the Clippers are willing to move on from George. NBA reporter Marc Stein noted Tuesday that the Clippers gave rival teams the impression they were gauging George’s trade value on the open market.
The Clippers have struggled with keeping their two stars, Kawhi Leonard and George, healthy throughout their time in Los Angeles. On paper, Los Angeles has consistently looked like a team ready to compete in the Western Conference, but their stars haven’t stayed healthy over the last couple of seasons, leading to the Clippers reportedly gauging George’s value for a potential offseason move.
