Paul George Left Empty Handed After Jersey Swap With Luka Doncic

The Los Angeles Clippers eliminated the Dallas Mavericks with a Game 7 126 – 111 victory on Sunday. As usual, many players will do the jersey exchange after eliminating a team. We have already seen Devin Booker and LeBron, and Derrick Rose and Trae Young exchange jerseys.

Sunday, after the game, you can see Paul George talking to Luka Doncic and then George takes off his jersey and hands it to Doncic.

You can see that Doncic walks away with George’s jersey and that he keeps his on. Some were left thinking that he wanted to trade jerseys with someone else or that maybe Doncic just didn’t care to give his jersey to anyone.

A report from Brad Townsend of the Dallas Morning News stated that Doncic did in fact send one after.

Doncic on the Paul George jersey swap thing: “I did send one after, in the locker room.” So you guys can calm down. He didn’t diss George.
