PHILADELPHIA — 76ers forward Paul George did not appear to suffer any long-term damage to a hyperextended left knee injured in a preseason game. «Everything checks out OK,» coach Nick Nurse told reporters Tuesday at the team's New Jersey complex.

George attended Tuesday's practice and was scheduled for more tests later in the day. Even before the injury, George was not scheduled to play in Wednesday's preseason game against Brooklyn.

Nurse said there was no additional timetable for how long George could be out and more would be known after additional imaging is completed.

A nine-time All-Star, George was injured when his knee buckled on a defensive play in the second quarter of Monday's game against Atlanta.
