George (heel) registered 26 points (9-22 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six assists, four rebounds and two steals across 31 minutes in Wednesday's 117-112 loss to the Hornets. George returned to action Wednesday after missing Utah's previous five contests due to left heel inflammation. The 21-year-old guard didn't face any limitations with his playing time in his return and took on a 35.1 percent usage rate while leading Utah in points and assists. However, George continues to struggle with his efficiency, and he's now shooting just 39.5 percent from the field on 13.7 attempts per game for the season.

Nails five triples in return
George (heel) registered 26 points (9-22 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six assists, four rebounds and two steals across 31 minutes in Wednesday's 117-112 loss to the Hornets. George returned to action Wednesday after missing Utah's previous five contests due to left heel inflammation. The 21-year-old guard didn't face any limitations with his playing time in his return and took on a 35.1 percent usage rate while leading Utah in points and assists. However, George continues to struggle with his efficiency, and he's now shooting just 39.5 percent from the field on 13.7 attempts per game for the season.
Cleared to play Wednesday
George (heel) is available for Wednesday's game against the Hornets. George has shaken off a questionable tag and will suit up for the first time since Jan. 4. He's played in only three games since Dec. 19, so major restrictions may be in store. However, the Jazz will be without Collin Sexton (rest), Jordan Clarkson (foot), Lauri Markkanen (back), John Collins (hip) and Johnny Juzang (hand) on Wednesday, so Utah may have no choice but to play George extended minutes in his return.
Upgraded to questionable
George (hip) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Hornets, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. The questionable designation is an upgrade for George, who has been ruled out in five games in a row due to left heel inflammation. With Lauri Markkanen (back) and backcourt mate Collin Sexton (rest) not playing Wednesday, George could be immediately thrust into a role as Utah's top scoring option. If George sits out, however, Isaiah Collier should serve as the Jazz's primary ball handler against Charlotte.
Will remain out Sunday
George (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nets. George has missed four straight and eight of the last 11 games for Utah. Isaiah Collier should continue to start at point guard in George's absence, while the latter's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against Charlotte.
Ruled out Saturday
George (heel) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Suns. George will miss a fourth straight game Saturday as he continues to deal with inflammation in his left heel. Collin Sexton will likely continue to shoulder the load in the backcourt with George on the mend.
Still out against Heat
George (heel) won't play in Thursday's game against the Heat. George will be sidelined for a third straight outing due to heel inflammation, and Saturday's matchup with the Suns marks his next opportunity to take the floor for the Jazz. Considering Jordan Clarkson (foot) remains on the shelf, Collin Sexton figures to continue handling a sizable boost in usage from Utah's first unit, while Isaiah Collier and Johnny Juzang are likely to pick up additional minutes Thursday. Over seven games with George out of action in 2024-25, Sexton is averaging 21.1 points, 5.1 assists, 3.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.4 threes in 30.5 minutes.
Ruled out for Tuesday
George (heel) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Atlanta, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. George will miss his second consecutive outing due to left heel soreness, and his next chance to feature will come Thursday against Miami. With the 21-year-old and Jordan Clarkson (foot) sidelined, Isaiah Collier, Johnny Juzang and Svi Mykhailiuk are candidates for a bump in playing time.
Sidelined Sunday
George has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Magic due to left heel soreness. George missed four consecutive outings due to a left ankle sprain at the end of December, and he'll now miss Sunday's game due to a new injury to his left heel. With the 21-year-old joining Jordan Clarkson (foot) on the sideline, Isaiah Collier and Johnny Juzang are candidates for increased roles.
Dealing with heel soreness
George is questionable for Sunday's game against the Magic due to left heel soreness, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. George missed four straight games to end December due to an ankle issue, but the heel soreness is new, though they may be somewhat related. Jordan Clarkson (foot), John Collins (personal) and Lauri Markkanen (back) have all been ruled out for the second half of Utah's back-to-back set, so George could have increased usage if given the green light.
