Paul George has reportedly committed to re-signing with the Thunder on a four-year, $137M max contract according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Teams and players cannot formally sign contracts until July 6.

The 28–year-old George was traded to Oklahoma City last July, with the Pacers receiving Victor Oladipo and Domantas Sabonis in return.

George averaged 21.9 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 79 games this season for the Thunder and was named a third-team All-NBA performer.
