Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George is currently consulting with medical professionals to address ongoing groin and knee injuries, with surgery being a possible option.
George’s inaugural season with the 76ers has been challenging. After signing a four-year, $212 million contract in July 2024, he has averaged 16.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists over 41 games. The team holds a 20-34 record, placing them outside the playoff contention.
In light of these struggles, reports suggest that the 76ers are considering trading George during the offseason to rebuild their roster. Teams like the Golden State Warriors and Atlanta Hawks have reportedly shown interest in acquiring the veteran forward.
The 76ers’ management faces critical decisions regarding the team’s direction, balancing immediate competitiveness with long-term success.
