What It Means:

Paul has been dealing with a bruise of his left knee, which will have kept him out of two straight games with him already ruled out for Saturday against the Dallas Mavericks. The Rockets have him listed as day-to-day for now, but have been insistent about their plan to be cautious given his value to a potential playoff run.

As of now, we project Paul to play 73 games and average 20.1 points, 9.3 assists and 4.9 rebounds in 32.6 minutes per game this season.
