He said that even though he would like to play in Charlotte, playing there would mean the end of his career.

"If I am in free agency, I am not picking Charlotte," George said. "Just because there is no winning culture there, regardless, Charlotte is a great city. I would love to play for them because of the city... but from a basketball standpoint, my career over if I go there."

While George had a decent individual run with the 76ers last year, his season was plagued by injuries. He was sidelined at the start of the season and was on the bench again before the playoffs. He played only 41 games and averaged 16.2 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game on 43.0 percent shooting.
