Paul George revealed that his move from the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Los Angeles Clippers went beyond simply his ability to best compete for a title.
“[People] think it was a basketball move,” George told ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne. “And for a lot of reasons, it was a basketball move. But that’s not where it comes from. It was a lot deeper than me coming here for basketball reasons. For me to be able to come to my mom and make it a lot easier for the travel on her and my dad, that was one of the biggest reasons I wanted to come back and play at home”.
When the Pacers went from title contender to fringe playoff team, George began considering leaving when he became a free agent in 2018. The Lakers were a contender but they were unable to trade for him and he was eventually moved to the Oklahoma City Thunder and he decided to re-sign in 2018.
