George, 34, appeared to suffer a left leg injury with 11:21 left in the third after grabbing a rebound under the Memphis basket, possibly rolling his left ankle.
He had missed the team's first five games with a bone bruise in his left knee.
George, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid were playing together for the first time this season.
