Paul George out for the remainder of the regular season

Injured in the knee against the Thunder last night, Paul George underwent examinations today to measure the severity of his injury. Obviously, we avoided the worst, but his end of the season is still compromised.

Seeing PG’s knee twist in the face of the impact of Lu Dort (1m93 for 100 kilos all the same), we had big cold sweats. We all know Paulo’s injury history and we immediately imagined the worst. Fortunately, according to Adrian Wojnarowski ofESPNwe are “only” on a sprained knee, which leaves the door open to a potential return this season.

Paul George will be reassessed in two to three weeks according to the Woj. We should therefore no longer see him on a regular basis, but a return to the Playoffs is one of the possible scenarios. Provided of course that the Clippers are doing without him by then.

At the time of these lines, the Los Angeles team has not yet secured its place in the Playoffs. Tyronn Lue’s men lost an important game against the Thunder yesterday and posted a record of 38 wins for 35 losses, synonymous with fifth place in the West. They are only a game and a half ahead of the seventh (Oklahoma City) and only 2.5 on the eleventh (the Lakers). You understood, everything remains to be played during the last ten regular meetings, and the Clippers will need everyone to compensate for the absence of Paul George.

Just for the record, Los Angeles has a balance sheet of only 6 wins in 17 games played without PG This year…
