The Los Angeles Clippers announced earlier today that Paul George has entered the league’s health and safety protocols. After testing positive for COVID-19, the star will miss tonight’s Play-in game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
First and foremost, here’s to PGIII returning to full health as quickly as possible from the deadly virus.
Without question, though, the Pelicans suddenly have a golden opportunity. An easier path to the 2022 playoffs should be sitting before them. Oddsmakers have listed New Orleans as 1-point favorites.
Prior to the breaking news about George, the Clippers were coined 4-point favorites.
