Luka Doncic just picked up his second foul after he made contact with Harden. I think he’s more frustrated because he felt Harden fouled him on the other end. – 10:14 PM

Paul George is the Sixers’ top target this offseason, per @WindhorstESPN.
The Clippers have been unwilling to offer George a max contract, which Philadelphia appears prepared to do.
Philadelphia will have close to $60 million in cap space. pic.twitter.com/NDO7MTlX1T – 5:50 PM

More on this storyline
Ohm Youngmisuk: Lawrence Frank says “we believe the window is still open” as far as a championship with Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. He also adds Clippers understand the skepticism after all the injuries and falling short. He points to Kawhi being a top-5 player when healthy. -via Twitter @NotoriousOHM / May 6, 2024
