Chris Paul, the New Orleans Hornets' leading scorer, left the Hornets-Blazers game late in the third quarter and did not return. USA Today reports that the injury is a sprained ankle.

Even when Paul was in the game, his newly-retooled coaching staff hadn’t found a way to use him effectively, as Paul finished with only three points.

Updates will be posted as they become available. In the meantime, follow the the discussion among fans at our Hornets blog, At The Hive.
