Paul George gives Joel Embiid an unexpected word of advice regarding ongoing injury issues. As the Philadelphia 76ers try to do everything in their power to aid Joel Embiid's ongoing injury recovery, Paul George offered his star teammate a nonchalant word of advice.

Paul George provided a hilariously blunt response when asked about Joel Embiid’s ongoing injury struggles, offering just two words:  "Drugs helped." While the comment initially raised eyebrows, it became clear that George was referring to prescribed medication and treatment rather than anything more controversial.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George missed five games after suffering an injury to the extensor tendon in his left pinky finger on Jan. 25. Since returning to the lineup on Feb. 5, George has been playing with a splint on that finger.
