A breakout game from the All-Star wing, who is averaging as many fouls the past two games as he has baskets, is sorely needed for the Clippers’ show to go on
The Clippers’ Paul George waits during a 96-93 loss to the Dallas Mavericks in Game 2 of their Western Conference first-round playoffs series on Tuesday, April 23, 2024, at Crypto.com Arena. DALLAS — You expected Kawhi Leonard to be listed as questionable before Game 4 of Clippers first-round Western Conference playoff series Sunday. Because you, me, we all see it:The liquid smooth Palmdale hooper is mired in a pretty severe drought.
Paul George end of media availability this morning after being asked repeatedly about contract extension discussionsAs of now, though, no deal.
George’s contributions in the Clippers’ past two games, both losses? He’s averaging as many fouls – five – as baskets. It’s not even that the Mavs have knocked him off course, it’s been PG vs. PG – and for just 33 minutes per game. Remember watching when the bubble got the best of George back in Orlando in 2020? When in Games 2-4 of the Clippers’ first-round series against the Mavs, he averaged a still-astounding 11.3 points on 21.3% shooting.
