George's deal includes a player option in the final season in 2027-2028.<\/p>\n<p>George, 34, departs from Los Angeles after spending the last five seasons with the Clippers. George was traded from the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Clippers during the 2019 offseason for\u00a0Shai Gilgeous-Alexander,\u00a0Danilo Gallinari, five first-round draft picks, and two first-round pick swaps.<\/p>\n<p>With the Clippers, George made three All-Star teams and one All-NBA third team. Last season, George averaged 22.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists.<\/p>\n<p>During George's tenure, the Clippers made the Western Conference Finals once (2021).
