Jerry West is Basically a Wizard 🏀
I never saw this coming. I don’t think anyone else did either. Somehow, someway, the Los Angeles Clippers not only landed Kawhi Leonard, but they also swung a deal to acquire Paul George from the Thunder. You’re talking the Finals MVP joining a regular season MVP candidate, both of whom are from Southern California. Talk about a dream if you’re the Clippers.
It didn’t come without the Clips giving up a lot to get George. To be specific they sent OKC:
- Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
- Danilo Gallinari
- Unprotected first round picks in 2021,2022, 2023, 2024, and 2026
- A protected first round pick in 2023
- Pick swaps in 2023 and 2025
Crazy news to start the morning!
