Chris Paul could be back from a broken thumb sooner than expected when the NBA-leading Phoenix Suns face the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night.
Phoenix Suns head coach Monty Williams, left and injured Suns guard Chris Paul, right, watch the action in the second half of an NBA basketball game in Sacramento, Calif., Sunday, March 20, 2022. The Suns won 127-124.– Chris Paul returned from a broken thumb sooner than expected when the NBA-leading Phoenix Suns played the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night.
Williams said he had a certain number of minutes in mind for Paul's return, “but you can't cookie-cut it. I have to watch him, especially when there’s a break in the action. There are certain times with an athlete you’ve got to know if a guy is laboring. He knows and he’ll tell me. But it’s something we’ve got to monitor. You won’t see him close to his normal 28-32 . With the games we have left we’ve got to do our best to get him where he needs to be.
The Suns were worried that Paul might miss the remainder of the regular season because of the thumb injury, but the veteran has been active in recent practices in a push to return. With a nine-game lead over second-place Memphis with nine games left for both teams, the Suns were in position Thursday night to wrap up the best record in the NBA and home-court throughout the playoffs.“I didn’t put a limit on it or think that deeply about it,” Williams said about Paul's absence.
