Overview

  • George injured his left knee during a recent workout, prompting the 76ers to perform surgery on Monday.
  • Dr. Jonathan L. Glashow operated at NYU Langone’s Sports Medicine Orthopedic Center in New York during the minimally invasive arthroscopic cleanup.
  • Team sources confirmed the procedure addressed lingering joint debris without involving major ligaments.
  • He played only 41 games in 2024-25 as knee bone bruises, groin soreness and a finger tendon injury repeatedly sidelined him.
  • His recovery timeline will shape the 76ers’ championship drive alongside Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey and test the frontcourt depth additions.
