Is Paul George headed toward offseason surgery?

Thunder All-Star Paul George hinted during exit interviews Thursday that he could have surgery on his right shoulder in the offseason.

"I will address it soon," he said, "try to get it fixed and get back out there come this next season."

George declined to comment on the specifics of his right shoulder injury or when he was injured, but he did say he was dealing with it long before he had to sit out for three games at the end of February and beginning of March for right shoulder soreness. George said he wasn’t sure if he would be ready for preseason, but he wanted to “clean up what needs to be cleaned up,” so that it wouldn’t become a reoccurring problem.
