PHILADELPHIA -- Ever since getting back on the floor on Nov. 17, Paul George has been available at a high rate for the Philadelphia 76ers. He has played in 19 of a possible 23 games thus far and has been able to give the Sixers some consistent production on both ends.

The Sixers' fourth-quarter lineup of VJ Edgecombe, Quentin Grimes, Paul George, Kelly Oubre Jr., and Andre Drummond propelled the Sixers to the win over a potential playoff opponent.

The Sixers, suddenly at full strength, have hit their stride. Paul George is giving them an enormous two-way lift.

Coach Nick Nurse explains the late scratch of Paul George before the Philadelphia 76ers fell to the Toronto Raptors on Sunday.

The Philadelphia 76ers' big three have played very few games together, but things have been bad when they are all on the court.

Paul George has mostly been able to stay in the lineup this year, but he has seen his role significantly reduced with the emergence of Edgecombe and the continued excellence of Tyrese Maxey. Recently, former NBA star Carmelo Anthony labeled George as the third option on the 76ers, but it wasn't necessarily intended as a diss.
