Paul George Injury Timeline 

When the Sixers acquired Paul George from Los Angeles in the summer they knew they were signing a player with one of the worst injury records in the NBA and already they have been haunted by the All Star’s struggles.

George was ruled out for the first few weeks of the season after hyperextending his knee during preseason, but he finally got to play in November during a difficult period for Philadelphia.

After just eight games though George is back on the bench, as the future hall of famer is yet again struggling with a knee injury. George was forced off the court in a loss to the Grizzlies this week, with the 34-year-old undergoing an MRI immediately after the game.
