Paul George Still Questionable After Shootaround Absence
4 months agoLos Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (illness), who is listed as questionable on Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks, was not spotted at morning shootaround. It's not an encouraging sign, but George's status with an illness remains unchanged. L.A. will likely see how George is feeling after pregame warmups to determine his availability, so he should be deemed a game-time decision. PG-13 is notching first-round fantasy numbers this season, piling up 22.9 points, 4.2 assists, 3.2 three-pointers, 1.7 steals, and 93.1% free-throw shooting on 4.0 attempts per game. Things are starting to click for the Clippers, who have won all eight of their games in December. With Norman Powell (illness) and Bones Hyland (knee) iffy as well, Russell Westbrook could be busy as a starter or a reserve if George is absent on Wednesday, while Kawhi Leonard and James Harden would scoop up extra usage.
