Paul George suffered an apparent right leg injury in the LA Clippers' 101-100 loss to the OKC Thunder on Tuesday night. George fell awkwardly after rebounding the ball and got tangled up with Lu Dort.
The Clippers star was carried to the locker room and was ruled out for the rest of the game. There's still no update on his injury, but at first glance, it appears to be a hyperextended knee.
According to Dr. Evan Jeffries, an injury analyst for Fox Sports, George might have suffered a hyperextended knee. Jeffries added that he's concerned that "PG13" might have also damaged his ACL, PCL, MCL and joint capsule.
