Chris Paul has been shelved since February 4 when he had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. At the time it was reported that the Hornets expected him to miss 4-6 weeks with the injury. Today, Paul was cleared to begin practicing.
Chris Paul Cleared To Participate In Practice
Three-time All-Star point guard Chris Paul was cleared Friday to begin participating in drills with his teammates at three-quarters speed, New Orleans Hornets Coach Jeff Bower said.
Paul participated in Friday’s shootaround at the New Orleans Arena, but Bower said there is still no set date on his return.
Paul has played in 38 games this season for the 32-33 Hornets. He is averaging 20.4 points per game with 11.2 assists per game. Not too shabby. It remains to be seen how Paul’s quickness will be affected by the surgery.
