MDP Live - After a heroic victory over the Denver Nuggets, bad news came to the Los Angeles Clippers. According to Bleacher Report, Clippers star Paul George, who is sidelined through injury, may not return to play this season.

The player who is familiar with the acronym PG has been sidelined since the end of December. In his report at that time, PG suffered a tear injury in the elbow muscle area. Estimated healing time was estimated at 3-4 weeks, but Bleacher Report got this news.

Knowing this situation, the same report says the Clippers are also getting ready. The Clippers are preparing various scenarios to deal with the remainder of the season and the transfer deadline is approximately one month away.

PG has been the Clippers' top choice since Kawhi Leonard picked up an ACL injury in the Western Conference semifinals last season. In 26 games this season, PG is averaging 24.7 points, 7.1 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game. PG had also entered the debate for MVP at the beginning of this season.

On the other hand, losing PG looked very difficult for the Clippers. In the last 10 games, the Sixers suffered six defeats. The Clippers overall have a 50 percent winning record (21-21) and are in eighth place in the Western Conference standings.

The position is still fairly safe for the Clippers. However, the season is still half way through and if PG is completely out of action and Kawhi doesn't return this season, the Clippers can only rely on Reggie Jackson, Marcus Morris and Terance Mann. These three names are good role players, but have not been tested as the team's mainstay.

It will be interesting to see how the Clippers deal with the rest of the season. Will they continue to struggle to reach the playoffs without their two stars? Or take the opposite step, take a break and prepare the team for next season.

MDP Live - Los Angeles Clippers basketball player, Paul George, had to accept the harsh reality where he had to be sidelined for a long time due to an elbow injury. Not yet known, how long George can return to play on the field.

According to a report from Adrian Wojnarowski as a well-known reporter for ESPN, Paul George was diagnosed with a torn UCL (Ulnar Collateral Ligament) injury in his right elbow. Given that there is a torn ligament, of course the recovery process that George has to undergo will take a lot of time. For now, the team of doctors will evaluate George in the next month.

After a month, George will be checked again and ascertained whether he can return to play in the near future or not. Worst case scenario, George could miss the rest of the NBA this season if the injury is more severe than expected.

This news is clearly a crushing blow for the Los Angeles Clippers. Tyronn Lue's team will stumble when George is left. How not, George is the Clippers' most fertile player this season. The player who is familiar with the nickname PG13 is able to score an average of 25 points and 7 rebounds per game.

Apart from losing George, the Clippers also cannot be strengthened by Kawhi Leonard because he has not yet recovered from his knee injury. Like it or not, Lue must take advantage of the remaining players to appear solid for the rest of the season. Possibly, they will rely on other players such as Luke Kennard, Reggie Jackson, or Marcus Morris.
