Paul George Ruled Out For Wednesday
16 hours agoPhiladelphia 76ers forward Paul George has played in 14 straight games, but that streak will come to an end on Wednesday against the Wizards since he was listed as out due to left groin tightness. George played 38 minutes on Monday in the Sixers' loss to the Suns and finished with 13 points, nine rebounds, and five steals. He and Joel Embiid (foot) will both be sidelined, leaving plenty of work for Tyrese Maxey in a smash spot against the Wizards. When George missed time earlier this season, Kelly Oubre and Caleb Martin were more involved, but both were already in the starting five on Monday. Eric Gordon and Ricky Council IV could get more work in George's place on Wednesday, but Maxey will have to step in and carry most of the offense, which he has proven he can do regularly so far this season.
