LAS VEGAS -- Devean George hopes Don Nelson stays. While we're at, George hopes to stay himself.

 

George is a free-agent forward who reiterated Saturday he wants to re-sign with the Warriors because he loves playing for Nelson. But there is some uncertainty regarding the future of the coach after the team was sold earlier this week to Joe Lacob and Peter Guber for a record $450 million.

 

"Yeah, I am,'' George said when asked if he's worried about whether Nelson, who has one year left on his contract, stays. "But I don't know. I just figure that (the new owners) come in, they probably maybe let him finish the year, and that will be all. I don't know. If they want to make changes, get a coach, get new people, I'm sure they might want to get everything settled first.''

 

Nelson, 70, who broke Lenny Wilkens' all-time NBA record last April for coaching wins and has a 1,335-1,063 mark over 31 years, already has said he plans for 2010-11 to be his last on the bench.

 

George, at the NBA Summer League for what he called a vacation, told FanHouse last April he wants to re-sign this summer with the Warriors because he likes playing so much for Nelson. Nothing has changed.

 

"We're trying to make something happen,'' George said of negotiations with Golden State. "I definitely want to go back.''
