George is making tangible progress according to reports after the Clippers said they would re-evaluate his status in the three-week time period which would be this week. With this injury, the Clippers are looked to be a +330 underdog in the first-round series against the Suns.

The Suns are looked upon as the favorites right now to represent the Western Conference in the NBA Finals. If the Clippers had George healthy, this would look to be the biggest back-and-forth of the entire first round of the NBA playoffs. He could still come back in time when the series switches to L.A. but until then we play the waiting game.
