Nine-time NBA All-Star Paul George signed a four year, $212 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers this offseason. The deal came after five seasons with the LA Clippers, as George and his hometown team were unable to come close on an agreement.

Tyrese Maxey returned from a hamstring injury to join Joel Embiid, who has played in only four games, and Paul George, who has appeared in eight. All three took their place in Philadelphia's starting lineup for the first time this season against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George has a bone bruise on his left knee and will miss two games, the team said Thursday.
