PG: Booker had 'sorry-ass response' to Klay podcast clip
There may be beef brewing between Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George and Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker ahead of the start of the season.
George recently sat down with Klay Thompson for an episode of his "Podcast P with Paul George," during which the Golden State Warriors star admitted he regrets his four-rings taunt at Booker during one of their matchups last season.
Booker responded to the clip on Instagram with a salute emoji to Thompson and then asked George, "is that the answer u was looking for?"

George was asked about Booker's comment Tuesday during a stream and called it a "sorry-ass response." He later added that he's going to be on his "bully shit" next season and "we gonna see who really tough."

The two players previously clashed during a Jan. 3, 2021 game, when Booker called George "soft" amid an on-court scuffle.
