The LA Clippers have been having a decent enough season, working their way forward even without Kawhi Leonard on the roster. Paul George has been leading the team to a season that’s going much better than most expected. They are currently on a short road trip, probably looking to bag some wins before heading home.
George, however, seems to be looking for some other kind of fun while on the road. The 31-year-old even looked happy, excited about the team being away for a while. Let’s take a look at what George was carrying as the Clippers get ready to face the Memphis Grizzlies.

“pg i see the money in that suitcase lol,” wrote one fan, some calling it gambling money. Many easily spotted the money, especially since users were already pointing it out. While not easily visible, the money cannot be ignored once noticed. Some even joked about George going bankrupt. However, the Clippers star is earning over $40 million every year, making it alright for him to spare some gambling money.
While some fans wondered what exactly the money was for, some users were convinced that was gambling money.
As most fans said, George can spend a few thousand gambling if he wants. He is signed to a four-year, $176 million contract with the Clippers, all guaranteed. Earning over $40 million a season, George also has various deals and endorsements.
