Clippers' Paul George traded by the weekend?

NBA Draft week is exciting enough on its own, but one analyst believes another bombshell transaction may occur in the coming days.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George is the star viewed as most likely to see a change of scenery this offseason. According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst, the deal may happen by the weekend.

“[Paul George] could opt-in and get traded by this weekend," Windhorst said on ESPN's Get Up. "That is something that is going to come to a head in the next day or two... We’re going to see some action in that very quickly after the draft.”

Windhorst went on to share his expectation for George's situation to come to a close prior to other available stars such as Golden State Warriors' Klay Thompson and Chicago Bulls' DeMar DeRozan. The Philadelphia 76ers are dominating as the top suitor for George, with teams including the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets bringing up the rear of possible destinations. Pairing George alongside the star tandem of Joel Embiid and Tyrexe Maxey immediately vaults the Sixers among the favorites in the Eastern Conference.
