<span data-preserver-spaces="true">It was an unfortunate play of events as it turned out that LA Clippers’ star Paul George is most likely to undergo surgery to recover from a torn ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow.

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">The 31- year old has only seen 26 games this season, and those games had averages of 24.7 points, 7.1 rebounds and 5.5 assists. </span>
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">The Clippers are in a very rocky situation, with both of their best players recovering. Kawhi Leonard is unavailable as he tends to a torn ACL he suffered last postseason and is yet to be reevaluated. This leaves both players and coaches to fully maximize and work with what they have, giving Reggie Jackson and Terance Mann to carry the offensive load. </span>
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Clippers and fans of George hope for a speedy recovery to return to lift LA into contention again.</span>
