Paul George's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Paul George (knee) is officially available for the team's Monday night matchup against the Charlotte Hornets. He's still dealing with the same knee issue but has been wearing a brace which has allowed him to be on the court more often. With Jared McCain (knee) out indefinitely, George's usage will likely increase even more along with Tyrese Maxey. So far, he's had a rough time scoring as he averages 15.9 points per game on 41.3% shooting from the floor and 31.7% from three, but he remains a must-start any time he plays.

According to Tim Bontemps of ESPN, Philadelphia 76ers forwardPaul George (rest) will not play against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. The 34-year-old posted 29 points in Tuesday's NBA Cup victory over the Charlotte Hornets. He also played 37 minutes, so the team is staying cautious by sitting him in the second game of a back-to-back. WithJoel Embiid(knee, personal) also out,Tyrese Maxeycould receive more scoring opportunities.Jared McCainmay also move back to the starting lineup and should likely see an uptick in fantasy production.

According to Philadelphia 76ers head coach Nick Nurse, forward Paul George may miss Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. The veteran had 29 points in Tuesday's NBA Cup victory over the Charlotte Hornets. He also logged 37 minutes, so the team may play it safe by sitting him in the second game of a back-to-back. With Joel Embiid (knee, personal) likely to remain off the floor, Tyrese Maxey could receive significantly more scoring opportunities. Jared McCain may also move back to the starting lineup and should also see an uptick in fantasy production.

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Paul George (knee) will return from a three-game absence on Saturday against Detroit. The nine-time All-Star has shaken off a questionable tag ahead of tip-off. George adds much-needed quality to the 3-14 Sixers, who have struggled to kick into gear. So far this season, George has been limited to eight appearances with his new squad, averaging 14.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 2.3 steals in 28.9 minutes. With Joel Embiid (knee, personal) on the shelf, George will be expected to lead the 76ers offense with Tyrese Maxey. George's return pushes Jared McCain to the bench.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Pistons. The 34-year-old hyperextended his left knee in the November 20 matchup versus the Memphis Grizzlies and has missed the last three games. He practiced in full on Friday. However, this is George's second time dealing with this issue, so the team will likely continue taking the cautious approach to avoid further injury. With Joel Embiid (knee, personal) out again, Tyrese Max should lead the way offensively if George can't suit up. Jared McCain, averaging 23.7 points in seven starts this season, could also continue to benefit if George is unavailable.
