Clippers 'Determined' To Retain Paul George, James Harden

[RealGM Wiretap]

The Los Angeles Clippers are "determined" to retain Paul George and James Harden in free agency, reports ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

George will potentially be the top available free agent this offseason and is expected to receive interest from the likes of the Philadelphia 76ers and Orlando Magic.

Harden was acquired by the Clippers last October and will have a more limited market from rival teams.

The Clippers previously signed Kawhi Leonard to a three-year, $152.4 million extension.

Give both of these declining players max money is something that only the Clippers would do.

Balmer can afford to max them both. Not saying he should though.
