Paul George Shares Russell Westbrook Injury Update

Paul George revealed a Russell Westbrook injury update.

The big question surrounding the Clippers lately is the health of Russell Westbrook. Fans want to know the timeline of when he's going to return, and just how bad his fracture is.

On the newest episode of Podcast P, Paul George gave fans a small update on the health of Russell Westbrook and how he's been recovering.

"He doing good I checked up on him yesterday actually and spirits are high," George said. "He’s superhuman bro. No telling he’ll probably be back [soon]…. I know we talked when Zu [Ivica Zubac] was here like we never see him hurt. He’s the most durable person….It’s probably good that he’s taking this little time away…I think Bones has been playing well in replacement [of Russ]....He’s so quick and shifty and just got a different cadence to him. Bones is fun to watch! "

For now, Bones Hyland will be stepping up in place of the absent Russell Westbrook. The most fascinating thing about the replacement is just how different Bones Hyland is from Westbrook. Hyland gives up massive size and rebounding but offers much better spacing and shooting than Westbrook. The Clippers have been able to still thrive without Westbrook, but they're definitely going to need the option that he brings come playoff time.

The LA Clippers face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday at 10:00 p.m. EST.
