(Ron Hoskins/Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Pacers have \"increasing confidence\" that swingman Paul George will pass league-mandated concussion tests and play in Game 3, according to a tweet from Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The news is a slight improvement from earlier in the day on Thursday during the team's shootaround when head coach Frank Vogel said he had \"no clue\" if George would be ready on Saturday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;George suffered the concussion in the team's Game 2 loss to the Heat on Tuesday.
