Out Wednesday, will play Friday
George (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game versus Cleveland, but head coach Nick Nurse said that the forward will play Friday against the Magic while operating without a minutes restriction, Kyle Neubeck of AllPHLY.com reports.
Analysis
George had already logged 33 and 32 minutes in his last two games, but he could see his playing time push into the mid-to-upper 30s Friday if the contest is competitive throughout. Though he missed the 76ers' first five games of the season, George returned to play each of the last five contests and averaged 17.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 2.2 three-pointers and 2.0 steals.

Won't play Wednesday

Analysis

Pops for 29 in Tuesday's loss
George supplied a game-high 29 points (10-19 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 111-99 loss to the Knicks.
Analysis
Joel Embiid made his season debut for the Sixers on Tuesday, but it was George who led the team in scoring and rebounding. The veteran forward needed a few games to get his legs under him after his own belated start to the season, but while George's offense has been inconsistent, he's found other ways to contribute. Through five contests, the 34-year-old is averaging 17.2 points and 2.2 threes while shooting 42.5 percent from the floor and 30.6 percent from beyond the arc, but he's added 5.8 boards, 5.2 assists and 2.0 steals a game.

George contributed 15 points (6-18 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine assists, three rebounds and two steals across 33 minutes during Sunday's 107-105 overtime win over the Hornets.
Analysis
George paved the way for Philadelphia's first unit in a game that was led by the 76ers' bench, leading all starters in scoring while generating a game-high assist total in an overtime victory. George set a new season high in assists and has played well since making his debut Monday, posting at least 15 points and four dimes in three of his four outings.

On minutes restriction
