Today in the NBA regular season, the 76ers lost to the Heat 117-126. After the game, Nurse was interviewed.

Nurse said that he brought Paul George off the bench in the third quarter in order to match George's playing time with Harks - because he believed George was the best candidate to defend Harks.
