Chris Paul: (Ankle) Undergoing Further Tests

Paul (ankle) did not travel with the team and is undergoing more tests on his sprained left ankle, the Times Picayune reports.

It’s not yet known if the tests are routine or if the Hornets’ doctors suspect that the injury is more serious than previously thought. Paul was originally reported to have traveled with the team so this is a bit of a surprise. Darren Collison, Bobby Brown, or Devin Brown will start at point guard on Saturday.

Darren Collison, Bobby Brown, or Devin Brown will start at point guard on Saturday.

sons that line right there is so pathetic and shows just how lost this team is thanks to Byron Scott not developing young players. they don't even know who the to start! ... our 2nd string changes more than any other team in the league.

Scott used to have Morris Peterson as the starter for 2 weeks, then he would drop him all the way down to inactive list, then bring him back as the 3rd string guard, then inactive again, and then back to starter.

Paul could miss three weeks or a month
By Adrian Wojnarowski

After further evaluation on Saturday, New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul is expected to be on crutches for two weeks and could miss three weeks to a month with a severely sprained left ankle, sources told Yahoo! Sports.

There was no structural damage found in an MRI administered on Saturday, but the severity of the sprain pushed back the original belief on Friday night that Paul could return within one to two weeks.

“It’s just really sore right now,” a source said.

Nevertheless, Paul is hopeful that aggressive treatment and sheer determination can speed up the timetable and get him back to the Hornets as quickly as possible. The Hornets are 3-7, and must now turn to rookie point guard Darren Collison and third-string Bobby Brown. The Hornets traveled to Atlanta for a game on Saturday night.

“Even with the bad situation, his at ude is not “Why bother?” one source said. “It’s his team and he knows that. He doesn’t want to let anyone down. He’s determined to get back as fast as he can.”

Paul injured the ankle when he appeared to land on Blazers center Joel Przybilla in the third quarter. After clutching his ankle in pain, Paul was eventually helped off the court and to the locker room by his teammates.

Paul’s injury was the latest setback for the Hornets, who fired Byron Scott as coach on Thursday and replaced him with general manager Jeff Bower. Paul had grown close to Scott and was upset by his dismissal.
