After leaving the Clippers, George found his next home. According to the Athletic WOJ, he signed a four-year, $212 million contract with the 76ers.

After the free agent market opened, George's negotiations with the Clippers completely collapsed, and the two sides decided to part ways after another brief communication. After George left the Clippers, the 76ers were number one.

George negotiated with the Clippers because the price was not negotiated, and the Clippers insisted on a three-year contract, similar to Leonard, who was seeking a four-year contract.

The Clippers also gave the reason for not giving George a four-year fat contract in their official statement, that is, because he is older. "The differences between the two sides are enormous, and we understand and respect George's decision to look for other opportunities, and we have explored the possibility of signing and trading, but we have very little in return under the constraints of the current collective bargaining agreement," the Clippers official said. ”

However, George understands his value, and he previously refused to exercise his $48.79 million player option for the 2024-25 season to become a free agent, knowing that other teams are willing to offer a bigger contract.

George is 34 years old, and last season, he played in 74 regular season games, averaging 22.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game, shooting 47.1/41.3/90.7% from three. However, in the playoffs, George's performance has been up and down, and his injury history has made his investment still full of risks.
