'Billy Donovan says Paul George is “day to day” with his shoulder. He says OKC didn’t do much contact today in practice. Wouldn’t speculate either way if George will be available for Game 1.'

'Paul George said the pain in his right shoulder was too much to try and play through against Milwaukee, but says “as much as I can get it 100 as possible or close to it, you can expect me out there Sunday.'

Over the course of the regular season, George averaged 28.0 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game -- and his participation will be crucial to the Thunder's chances of pulling off a first-round upset.
