All-Star forward Paul George is likely to miss the LA Clippers' entire opening-round Western Conference playoff series against the Phoenix Suns because of his sprained right knee, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Sunday.
George has been progressing on the rehabilitation from the injury he suffered on March 21, but the Clippers are preparing to be without him for the series that begins with a Game 1 on Sunday in Phoenix, sources said.
The Clippers are facing a significant task against the Suns, who've been undefeated in eight games with Kevin Durant in the lineup since his arrival from the Brooklyn Nets in a trade deadline deal.
