Clippers All-Star forward Paul George will miss his second straight game because of left knee soreness, coach Tyronn Lue said.

Lue said George would not practice Tuesday and would not be available for the Clippers’ home game against the Lakers on Wednesday night at Crypto.com Arena.

George has missed just four games because of injuries.

Clippers coach Tyronn Lue says the team hasn’t looked like itself since returning from the All-Star break and he’s determined to get things back on track.

He is averaging 22.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists while shooting 45.6% from the field and 39.5% from three-point range.
