Paul George PED Suspension EXPLAINED — How the 76ers Actually BENEFIT 🤯 #76ers #shorts #PaulGeorge
Paul George just got suspended 25 games by the NBA for violating the league’s anti-drug program. After shooting 22% from three for 6 straight games, PG suddenly exploded for 32 points and 9 threes against the Bucks — and immediately got drug tested.
The financial impact is INSANE: George loses nearly $12 million in salary, while the 76ers receive a $5.8 million luxury tax credit that drops them from $7M over the tax to just $1.3M over. This could completely change Philadelphia’s trade deadline strategy with Feb 5th approaching.
George claims he was taking medication for mental health issues and accidentally took the wrong one. He’s eligible to return March 25th vs the Bulls with 10 games left in the regular season.
The 76ers are 26-21 and 6th in the East — 16-11 with PG, 10-10 without him. Can Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and VJ Edgecombe hold it down?

If he's taking medicine for Mental Health it's not a PED. Nothing he consumed enhanced his performance according to reports. Something tells me he's been on a bender and the NBA is having him take a 25 game absence to get right…
They clipped PED P in 4K after he dropped 30 one time
The NBA also said, "Hold on, something isn't right here….too. @GeorgeD559 hasn't got his Luka-Sunday-white-home jersey @TheFlightMike

I take the wrong meds all the time. Feytnol, crack, peds
Well LeBron needs to get checked for PED before every game
Getting suspended shouldnt relieve you from the luxury tax.
Test LeBron or no one should ever be suspended for substances again……
