Drains four treys in OKC George logged 12 points (4-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Sunday's 129-104 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Facing one of his former clubs, George was able to find some success from beyond the arc, but he was rested for most of the fourth quarter in a blowout loss. The 35-year-old forward has been able to take the court for nine of the Sixers' 11 games in December, averaging 17.1 points, 5.8 boards, 3.3 assists, 3.1 threes and 1.1 steals in 30.7 minutes a contest.

Probable vs. Oklahoma City George is probable for Sunday's game against the Thunder due to left knee injury management.

Impact The probable tag suggests George should suit up to face his former team, but a decision on his status will be made closer to Sunday's 3:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

76ers can't escape frustrating reality about big three in loss to Bulls Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid and Paul George continue to endure growing pains in the 76ers' 109-102 loss to the Bulls on Friday night.

Struggles with shot Friday George provided 15 points (5-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 12 rebounds and five assists across 35 minutes during Friday's 109-102 loss to Chicago.

Impact George needed 15 shots to record 15 points, and, like Tyrese Maxey, he also struggled from inside the arc, going 1-for-6 on two-pointers. The veteran forward has failed to reach the 20-point mark in four of his last six appearances. Even though he remains a player capable of filling out the stat sheet on any given game, George is no longer the stat-filling machine he used to be during the prime of his career. Between injuries and inconsistencies, he's simply the third-best option for the 76ers right now behind Maxey and a healthy Joel Embiid.
