Current NBA players have shared their opinions about the rumors that the Warriors are interested in Clippers star Paul George.
Pelicans guard CJ McCollum thinks that PG-13 needs to decide what his priorities are before making a decision.
“He has to decide what matters most to him,” McCollum said on NBA Today. “Does he want to be in LA? He’s from there. I know the family dynamics of being close to the home, what that means. Does he continue to want to play alongside Kawhi [Leonard] and bet on health and obviously James [Harden] probably coming back as well.
“Does he want to explore living on the East Coast? … does he want to explore seeing what happens with Klay [Thompson], whether he leaves or stays? I think he has to figure out what his priorities are, who he wants to play alongside as he gets closer to the latter part of his career.”
McCollum went on discuss how exciting it would be to see George team up with Steph Curry and Draymond Green and chase his first-ever championship.
“To the Bay … The West is hard, but could you imagine him, Steph [Curry], [Draymond Green] together?” McCollum said.
Bucks guard Patrick Beverley also took to X to share his thoughts about a potential George trade to the Dubs, and clearly approves.
Boi if PG go to “The Warriors” that would be so tough @PatBevPod

George is a nine-time All-Star, so could certainly bring some experience and X-factor to The Bay that the Warriors are lacking.
