Chris Paul (knee) expected to return Thursday for Rockets
Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (knee) is targeting a return on Thursday against the Phoenix Suns.
Paul won't play on Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors, but if all goes well at practice over the next few days, he should be back in action on Thursday night in Phoenix. The eight-time All-NBA guard hasn't played since making his Rockets debut in the season-opener on October 17.
Once back, numberFire's models project CP3 to average 20.4 points, 9.4 assists, 4.9 rebounds, 1.7 steals, 2.7 3-pointers, and 2.7 turnovers per game for the remainder of the season.
