Paul George Injury Update: January 21 vs. the Nuggets

By: Stan Son

Paul George ($8,100) missed the last two games due to left groin tightness. He is questionable for Tuesday’s game against the Denver Nuggets.

Guerschon Yabusele ($5,300) also missed the last two games but with swelling in his right knee. He is also questionable.

Andre Drummond ($4,900) has been in and out of the lineup over the last 13 games due to a toe injury, playing in only three. Most recently, he missed six games before starting and playing 27 minutes on Saturday. He sat Sunday for the back-to-back and is also questionable for Tuesday.

If George is unable to go, then Ricky Council IV ($4,500) would likely get the start. He’s played 29 and 36 minutes over the last two games and finished with 27.5 and 38.75 FPTS.

If Yabusele and Drummond are out, Adem Bona ($4,100) would likely get another start. He got the nod on Sunday, playing 24 minutes and contributing 10 points, six rebounds, a block and a steal, good for 21 FPTS. On Saturday, he also finished with 21 FPTS.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
