Chris Paul has been upgraded to probable for today's Suns game against the Grizzlies. He has been out the last 7 games.

Cam Johnson is not on the injury report so he's good to go as well.

Deandre Ayton, Devin Booker, Jae Crowder, Cam Payne and Landry Shamet remain out.

I only want 2 things:
1. A win
2. Sign Shannon Sharpe to a 10 day and let him give Brooks and Ja a Raja clothesline.

Nice to have Cam and Paul playing. Should help a lot. But still a tough one.

Hot take: Does Paul hurt us or help? Either way, how much?

I like and appreciate our defensive effort. We need to send a message and show them we're not afraid to do battle with these braggarts.

Helps us as opposed to who we have been playing...a ton. In comparison to Payne, still probably a bit.

But their is a massive difference between starting him or Washington or whoever when Payne is out.

Grizz cannot hit anything. No one outside of Bane has hit a shot yet.

CP3 looking like early 30s CP3. Just needs a few weeks off between every game he plays I guess.

Paul looks pretty sharp so far. Hopefully he can pace himself so there's enough energy for what I fully expect to be a strong rally by MEM.

Is CP3 truly hurt or was he dogging it so he can be fresh for the playoffs? Has this season just been a test for Bridges and Ayton to amp up their aggressiveness, develop better offensive tendencies?

Good start. I need to do homework soon though so will probably stop watching in the 2nd quarter.

Crazy we are now only 3 games back of the Pelicans (4 seed). 1.5 of 5 seed and 1 of 6 seed.

Probably been hurt and finally realized this year him playing when hurt was not doing us any favors, so he makes sure he is completely healthy before playing.

As we know a healthy Paul makes a world of difference for any team, but especially an injury depleted one like ours.

Grizzlies also only 500 on the road while we are 16-7 at home.

Wow, Paul aggressive offensively and carrying us in 1st qtr. Our other 3 starters aside from Bridges are 2-8.

We're missing a lot from inside the paint. I get that they've got two big guys, but we need to get those buckets and not settle for jumpers. It's good MEM is relatively cold from the floor.

I'm glad Suns are play with energy against the biggest craptalkers in the league.
