Thanks to four days between games, Indiana Pacers star Paul George will be fully recovered and concussion free after suffering from the head injury on Tuesday night. For his part, George says that he's been without symptoms for the past few days and the "Return-to-Participation Exertion Protocol" (which isn't "as extensive" as the NFL's new procedure) seems to back that up since George showed no signs of any lingering effects.

The news is gladly welcomed in Indianapolis since the Pacers chances of topping the Heat without their All-Star would've been greatly hampered (understatement) without the services of George. Barring any complications during tomorrow's shootaround, you should see him on the floor when the game tips off at 7:30 EST.
