The Indiana Pacers will be without Paul George and C.J. Miles for at least another game.

Already sitting for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, George and Miles will also be out for the second game of the Pacers' back-to-back against the Golden State Warriors on Monday, Nate Taylor of the Indianapolis Star reports.

George missed Friday's contest against the Phoenix Suns with a left ankle sprain, while Miles was forced out of that game after suffering a knee injury in the first quarter.

Pacers coach Nate McMillan told reporters that X-rays and MRIs revealed no structural damage for either player.

"The results were what we thought, which is a good thing," McMillan said Sunday. "We'll look at those guys as far as when they will play again, if they will play the next game (against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday)."

George is averaging 21 points, seven rebounds, and 3.5 assists on 45.9 percent shooting this season. Miles is putting together his best season as a pro, averaging 13 points, 2.3 rebounds, and one steal on 49.2 percent shooting.

Glenn Robinson III is likely to see plenty of action at small forward with both players out.
