76ers' Paul George: Injures knee, won't return
George has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies due to a left knee hyperextension, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports. He recorded two points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 17 minutes before exiting the game.
George exited the game after landing awkwardly early in the third quarter before the 76ers ruled him out for the remainder of the contest. The 34-year-old missed the first five games of the 2024-25 campaign with a bone bruise in the same knee. Per Jones, George will undergo an MRI on Thursday, when the 76ers will learn more information about the severity of the injury while also having a clearer idea on a timeline for his recovery. His potential absence could open up more minutes on the wing for Eric Gordon, Kelly Oubre, Ricky Council and Jared McCain.

76ers' Paul George: Still struggling with shot
George totaled 18 points (5-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six rebounds, five assists and three steals over 33 minutes during Monday's 106-89 loss to the Heat.
While his overall production was solid, George once again had trouble getting his shot to fall. In his first seven games with Philly since getting past a knee issue, the 34-year-old is shooting just 39.6 percent from the floor and 28.8 percent from beyond the arc while averaging 16.7 points, 5.6 boards, 5.1 assists, 2.4 steals and 2.1 threes. The Sixers have yet to feature their new Big Three of Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) and George on the court at the same time, so it could be a while before the newest member of the trio finds his comfort level.

76ers' Paul George: Logs four steals Friday
George racked up 13 points (4-15 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists and four steals over 36 minutes during Friday's 98-86 loss to the Magic.
George was responsible for four of the 76ers' 10 steals, Friday which somewhat made up for his shortcomings on offense, though he did finish as Philadelphia's third-leading scorer behind Jared McCain (29) and Joel Embiid (20). Through six regular-season games, George is averaging 16.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 2.3 steals over 30.2 minutes per game.

76ers' Paul George: Out Wednesday, will play Friday
George (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game versus Cleveland, but head coach Nick Nurse said that the forward will play Friday against the Magic while operating without a minutes restriction, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
George had already logged 33 and 32 minutes in his last two games, but he could see his playing time push into the mid-to-upper 30s Friday if the contest is competitive throughout. Though he missed the 76ers' first five games of the season, George returned to play each of the last five contests and averaged 17.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 2.2 three-pointers and 2.0 steals.

76ers' Paul George: Won't play Wednesday
George has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers due to left knee injury management, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
George and Joel Embiid (knee) will both rest for the second half of Philadelphia's back-to-back set, opening up plenty of minutes for several other player. In Tuesday's 111-99 loss to the Knicks, George had his best game of the season, posting 29 points (10-19 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, three steals and one block in 32 minutes. George should return to action Friday in Orlando.

76ers' Paul George: Pops for 29 in Tuesday's loss
George supplied a game-high 29 points (10-19 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 111-99 loss to the Knicks.
Joel Embiid made his season debut for the Sixers on Tuesday, but it was George who led the team in scoring and rebounding. The veteran forward needed a few games to get his legs under him after his own belated start to the season, but while George's offense has been inconsistent, he's found other ways to contribute. Through five contests, the 34-year-old is averaging 17.2 points and 2.2 threes while shooting 42.5 percent from the floor and 30.6 percent from beyond the arc, but he's added 5.8 boards, 5.2 assists and 2.0 steals a game.

George contributed 15 points (6-18 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine assists, three rebounds and two steals across 33 minutes during Sunday's 107-105 overtime win over the Hornets.
George paved the way for Philadelphia's first unit in a game that was led by the 76ers' bench, leading all starters in scoring while generating a game-high assist total in an overtime victory.

76ers' Paul George: On minutes restriction

George has played 32 and 24 minutes respectively in his first two games after missing the first five to start the season. The 76ers will continue to manage the veteran wing's playing time as he recovers from a bone bruise in his left knee. The 34-year-old is averaging 16.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.0 steals, 0.5 blocks and 1.5 triples since debuting with Philadelphia.

76ers' Paul George: Logs 18 points against former team
George ended with 18 points (7-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 110-98 loss to the Clippers.
George received a smattering of cheers and boos as he took the court inside his former team's new digs in Inglewood. The former Clipper made the most of his homecoming with a solid multi-category line. George's frontcourt presence was enhanced due to Joel Embiid's (suspension) absence -- a trend that should continue until he returns. Once Philly's All-star center is back, the team will work through a series of possible first-unit combinations until they find the best fit.
