Paul George Faces Boos in Return to Clippers as Sixers Fall

Paul George's first game against the Clippers since joining the 76ers was marked by fan boos and a 110-98 loss for Philadelphia.

  • Paul George, now with the Philadelphia 76ers, returned to face the Los Angeles Clippers for the first time since signing a four-year, $212 million deal.
  • Despite a video tribute from the Clippers, George was met with boos from fans, which he described as 'stupid,' emphasizing his free agency decision was a business move.
  • George scored 18 points in the game, but the 76ers extended their losing streak to four games, dropping to a 1-6 record for the season.
  • The Clippers, playing in their new $2 billion Intuit Dome, improved to 4-4, with Norman Powell leading the team with 26 points.
  • Philadelphia's struggles were compounded by the absence of Joel Embiid, who is serving a suspension, and Tyrese Maxey leaving the game with a hamstring injury.
