George Hill will be sidelined after having a minor surgical procedure on his right thumb today, the Thunder announced in an email. The veteran guard will be re-evaluated in four weeks.
Oklahoma City coach Mark Daigneault told reporters last week that Hill suffered a sprain to his thumb, but X-rays were negative. He hasn’t played since January 24, with Theo Maledon taking his place in the starting lineup.
Hill, who was acquired in a four-team trade in November, has appeared in 14 games this season, all starts, and is averaging 11.8 points and 3.1 assists per night.
clippers should get him now with his stock low
NO!
Don’t miss this guy in Milwaukee
If all he costs is a second round pick, I wouldn’t be upset if he came back.
Maledon needs the minutes. He’s had a couple decent games.
Yes Clippers should …..
Maledon was a nice pickup. He’s more of a traditional PG. Has good size too.
This guy would sit out with a torn fingernail. Why am I not surprised here.
