Clippers president “Lawrence Frank called me and let me know everything before it happened. He said, ‘We got a chance to get Paul George. And if we get Paul George, we know we are going to get Kawhi (Leonard). With us having to bring Paul George in, we are going to have to let you go,’” Thornwell said Sunday on the first day of the Kuntry Classic Pro-Am in his hometown of Lancaster. “It is understandable. It is the business of the game. Anybody in America would have done that.”
“After everything comes through and clears, there is a possibility, he said, ‘We could might come back and get you and sign you back to the team.’ Thornwell said he would welcome a return to the Clippers to play alongside NBA All-Stars Leonard and George.
