Paul George avoids the worst

Joel Embiid uncertain, Paul George will he be able to take part in the first match of Philadelphia in the regular season? Difficult to move forward, since he injured his left knee in Atlanta on Monday evening.

At first worried, the Sixers can however blow, because ESPN reports that the All-Star winger did not suffer any structural damage, just a bone bruise. He will be re-evaluated in a week. “ Everything is fine » even confided Nick Nurse, the coach.

The same evening, Paul George had already been reassuring regarding his injury: “ I felt there was hyperextension and immediately thought I needed to come out and get checked out, but if you ask me I'm not too concerned about that. »

Good news for Philadelphia, which is obviously counting a lot on “PG”, its flagship recruit of the offseason (for $212 million over four years). Very fragile, just like Joel Embiid, this alert risks in any case reinforcing the franchise in its choice of “load management”, by saving its 34-year-old player as much as possible for the end of the season and the playoffs.
