The New York Knicks’ Potential Trade Package For Paul George Has Been Revealed

Forward Paul George is considered one of the elite wings in the league today, and he is one of the faces of the Los Angeles Clippers. There is no doubt that a lot of teams would love to have him on their rosters.

Previously, it was reported that the New York Knicks had an interest in trading for Paul George. Michael Scotto of HoopsHype has recently revealed the potential trade package that would have been sent out.

“The Knicks and Clippers originally had trade talks surrounding Paul George at the NBA draft. At the time, New York was considering a package featuring Obi Toppin, Quentin Grimes, Evan Fournier, and three first-round picks in exchange for George, league sources told HoopsHype. “Toppin was then traded to the Pacers for two second-round picks, as ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported.”

“After that, RJ Barrett’s name was brought up briefly in trade talks by the Clippers in place of Toppin, league sources told HoopsHype. However, the asking price of parting with Barrett, Grimes, three first-round picks, and then having to negotiate a long-term extension for George, who’s 33 years old, was too high for the Knicks.”

There is no doubt that this would have been a lot to give out for Paul George. He has a lengthy injury history and doesn’t match the timelines of key players on the roster, such as Jalen Brunson. However, he would still have been a good player to add overall to the roster, but at some point, the price is simply too much.

Paul George had a great 2022-23 regular season with the Los Angeles Clippers, putting up 23.8 PPG, 6.1 RPG, and 5.1 APG while shooting 37.1% from beyond the arc. Hopefully, he sustains this level of play for the Los Angeles Clippers going forward.

The Knicks Walked Away From Trade Negotiations Because The Price Was Too High

It was previously reported that the New York Knicks walked away from negotiations because the trade price for Paul George was too expensive, and also didn’t want to give him an extension.

As of right now, it seems as though Paul George will remain with the Los Angeles Clippers. However, the situation could always change, and we’ll see what happens in the future.
