Key Player Ruled OUT During Clippers vs Spurs Game
Lineups Impacted as Injury Bug Bites
Clippers Lose George, Spurs Lose Vassell
The Los Angeles Clippers and San Antonio Spurs will be without key players when they face off on Wednesday night. The Clippers have ruled out Paul George due to a right ankle sprain, while the Spurs will be without Devin Vassell due to a right knee injury.
George is averaging 24.7 points, 6.9 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game this season, while Vassell is averaging 11.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game.
The absence of George is a big blow to the Clippers, who are already without Kawhi Leonard (knee). The Clippers will need to find a way to replace George's production, or they could struggle to keep up with the Spurs.
The Spurs, on the other hand, have been playing well without Vassell, who has missed the last two games. The Spurs have won both of those games, and they will be looking to continue their winning ways against the Clippers.
The Clippers and Spurs are both in the playoff hunt, and this game could have a big impact on the standings. The Clippers are currently in sixth place in the Western Conference, while the Spurs are in ninth place.
The game will tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
