Still recovering, but trying to get back in shape
Almost three months after suffering an open tibia-fibula fracture in his right leg during a Team USA scrimmage, Paul George is back on the court. The resilient Indiana Pacers All-Star was seen draining mid-range jumpers with ease after practice at the gym, while still taking it easy as he moved around the perimeter.
Doctors cleared George to put weight on the injured leg recently, but there is still no clear timetable for his return to the Indiana Pacers. There is a chance he might return at some point during the season. Larry Bird and Frank Vogel are optimistic about the season without PG13, saying they still want to compete in the Eastern Conference.
