Free agent forward Paul George has agreed on a four-year, $212 million maximum contract with the 76ers, sources told ESPN early Monday morning.
George's deal -- which sources say includes a player option on the final season of the deal in 2027-28 -- brings him back to the Eastern Conference to partner with MVP center
The meeting came on the heels of months of unsuccessful negotiations with the Clippers on a deal to stay in his Southern California home. Embiid, Maxey and George were All-Stars last season and form one of the most formidable Big 3's in recent NBA history -- featuring an ideal roster balance between an explosive lead guard in Maxey, an elite two-way wing player in George and a dominant big man in Embiid.
"Paul is a tremendous talent and an elite two-way player. We feel fortunate for the five years we spent with him. Over that span, he went to three All-Star Games, made the most 3-pointers in franchise history and helped lead the team to a place it had never been. His performances in Games 5 and 6 against Utah in 2021 won't be forgotten by anyone associated with the Clippers.
Now, George will be hoping to reach that ultimate objective -- winning an NBA championship -- alongside Embiid and Maxey in Philadelphia. The arrival of George could give the Sixers the firepower to take on the Celtics in the East.
