Is Paul George looking for a reunion with the Pacers?

February 9, 2024 Trending News

Through 53 games this season, the Pacers are 29-24. That is sixth in the Eastern Conference with the all-star break on the horizon. Tyrese Haliburton is Indiana’s star player and he’s proved to be a legit PG in the NBA. Ahead of the trade deadline, the Pacers showed they were all in when made a move to acquire Pascal Siakam. 

Now, Indiana has a nice one-two punch in Haliburton and Siakam. To take the Pacers to the next level, they likely need another all-star caliber player. Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports suggests there have been small discussions about the Clippers’ Paul George returning to the Pacers this offseason. Is that a move that George is willing to make and are the Clippers ready to trade him away?

In 47 games played and started in 2023-24, George is averaging (22.3) points, (5.3) rebounds, (3.6) assists, and (1.6) steals. According to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports, there have been talks of Goerge reuniting with the Pacers. The easiest way Indiana could get that deal done is with a sign-and-trade. They are not in the greatest cap space right now and George is up for an extension this offseason. Who knows what they would have to give up for a player of George’s status?
