Clippers star Paul George will miss Friday night’s play-in tournament game vs. the Pelicans due to entering COVID-19 health and safety protocols, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Tim Bontemps.
It is unclear when George will be available again, if the Clippers advance into the playoffs. If the Clippers lose on Friday night, though, their season is over. If they beat the Pelicans without George, they would face the No. 1 Suns in a series beginning Sunday.
