Paul George To Return To The Thunder On A Huge Four Year Deal

Fans in Oklahoma City can relax in a way they haven’t been able to in quite a while. Paul George will not be going to the Lakers after it was announced he will be staying with the Thunder on a new four year contract, reportedly worth $137 million dollars.

The deal includes three years with a player option for the fourth year. It appears the deal was likely agreed upon well before Saturday night due to the fact George didn’t even bother to meet with any other team.

Saturday night saw Russell Westbrook and Sam Presti throw a huge party in Oklahoma City that was attended by many teammates and was invite only. The party was so serious that anyone attending had to sign a non-disclosure agreement. It was at the party that George let fans know what he was going to do.

You heard the Thunder fans in attendance go wild when George confirmed but that was far from the end of the party. Nas hit the stage and Westbrook along with George were right there with him.

The Thunder now have two star players signed long term, which definitely makes things easier when it comes to future moves to put them in championship contention along with the Warriors and Rockets in the west.
