The LA Clippers are extending Paul George's period of rest for the torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow a few more weeks to see how it responds, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
George has not played since scoring 17 points in a win at the Sacramento Kings on Dec. 22. He initially suffered a sprained elbow against the Portland Trail Blazers on Dec. 6, and rested and rehabbed for two weeks, missing five games. He felt better and returned to play in two games, but after feeling pain in the elbow, he underwent an MRI and the Clippers revealed he had a torn UCL in his shooting elbow on Dec.
