Paul George won't be back until March 25. The veteran cited improper medication as the cause of his suspension.
After the NBA announced his suspension, ESPN’s Bobby Marks reported that George’s 25-game suspension will cost him $11,742,293 in forfeited salary. The 76ers will receive a luxury tax variance credit of $5,871,147 as a result of his absence, reducing their tax burden and moving them closer to financial flexibility.
