Paul George Exits Game On Wednesday, Hyperextends Left Knee Again
1 month agoPhiladelphia 76ers forward Paul George (knee) exited Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies and did not return to the Sixers' 117-111 loss. George hyperextended his left knee, the same one he injured during the preseason. As of now, there have been no further comments from the team on the severity of George's injury, but fantasy managers should prepare for the 34-year-old to miss some time. In his absence, expect Kelly Oubre Jr. to be inserted back into the starting lineup. Oubre has averaged 13.4 points this season, though he averaged 18 PPG during the first five games of the season when George was out. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on George's status going forward and should snag Oubre off the waiver wire if possible.
