Chris Paul scores 11 points with 10 assists in return for Rockets
Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul scored 11 points with 10 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals, and 1 turnover on 3-of-7 field goals (2-of-4) 3-pointers and 3-of-3 free throws in 20.8 minutes of Thursday's 142-116 win over the Phoenix Suns.
What It Means:
Paul was limited in his first game back since the opener, but he didn't seem at all bothered and said afterward that everything felt great. Look for him to see closer to a normal workload versus the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday.
numberFire's models projected Paul to score 27.1 FanDuel points (FP) on Thursday, and he finished with 35.8 FP.
