Pacers' Paul George: Expects to play Monday
George (ankle) was a full participant in shootaround and is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Scott Agness of Vigilant Sports reports.
Analysis:
George has missed the Pacers' last three games with a sore left ankle, but he was able to go through shootaround without any issue, which bodes well for his chances of returning. The Pacers are officially listing George as questionable to play, but Nate Taylor of the Indianapolis Star surmises that while the injury may nag the star swingman, he should be viewed as probable for the contest. A formal declaration on George's status may not be known until after pregame warmups, but for the moment, it looks like he'll take back his usual spot in the starting five, with Glenn Robinson moving to the bench in a corresponding move.
