Paul George has been ruled out by the Philadelphia 76ers for the remainder of the season after receiving injections in his left adductor muscle and left knee on Monday.
George spent the past week meeting with doctors to determine the best treatment plan. George took painkilling injections for five consecutive games before the NBA All-Star break in February. During the preseason, George sustained a hyperextension of his left knee that forced him to sit out the first five games of the regular season. He hyperextended the same knee in November, which cost him three games.
George is in Year 1 of a four-year, $212 million deal with the Sixers.
